In a shocking turn of events, Maasai morans in the Nkurrunka area of Kitengela have been thrust into the spotlight following a violent confrontation that resulted in the death of one individual and left three others grievously injured.

Survivors of the attack, now nursing serious injuries, disclosed to the authorities that they were contracted to execute the raid. In a startling revelation, the group’s leader, who sustained injuries during the encounter with the morans, confessed to receiving the payment from an investor. This investor purportedly claimed ownership of the land on which the manyattas stood.
The incident has raised tensions in the region, highlighting the complexities of land disputes and the lengths to which individuals will go to assert their claims. The police are currently investigating the matter, seeking to uncover the identity of the investor and the motives behind this heinous act.
The community is in mourning, and calls for justice are growing louder as the Maasai morans stand their ground, defending their ancestral homes and way of life against those who seek to displace them through violence and intimidation.
