According to the source, the death toll in the past three days rose now to four in the disputed area, while another person is seriously injured in ICU at the Makueni Reference Hospital.
One of the victims’ mother in the latest incident, Florence Nduku, said the attackers acted in the middle of the evening armed with spears and swords and accused them of having occupied their land.
Nduku explained that she was able to escape when the attackers confronted her two children and a neighbor.
When she returned the next day, she found her 18-year-old son and the neighbor killed.
According to her words, they have inhabited the place since February, and the authorities are investigating why problems are now arising.
