He said peace building structures will be reactivated in an aim to encourage Marsabit residents to live in harmony.<\/p>\n<p>The process will be spearheaded by the security team. This comes days after the government said it had cleared bandits and other criminals from their hideouts in the North Rift.<\/p>\n<p>While fielding questions in the Senate on April 26, Kindiki said the ongoing operation in the area had been a big success. &#8220;All these places, the caves, gorges and ravines, all others that were being used as hideouts for bandits have been cleared and dominated by security forces.&#8221; The operations were mounted in six troubled counties of Samburu, Elgeyo Marakwet, Baringo, Turkana, West Pokot and Marsabit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/kenya\">Kenya<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
