Since then, have their territory expanded or diminished ?

Expanded. By the time we realize the gravity of the situation we will be dealing with an armed force similar to m23 in manpower, skill, and territory

Do yhey have the boots on the ground to cover all that territory ?

Yes they do. Shida yako umafikiria wanatumia mikukim you can easily control such an area with just 5k soldiers. Since they live in the bush and move with their animals. They don’t need to have a standing fort to protect it. They just need to make sure no one else can settle there

Really, the pokot terrorize where they migrate to. They will go terrorize the Turkana, then start migrating again , heading to Baringo, leaving Turkana open and free for all, then move to Laikipia and so on.
I stayed with the Samburu pple in Donyo Usain, and trust me, the expansion territory is where they terrorize and not occupy.

You cannot settle there. Right now they have a standing army to terrorize anyone who settles in their empty lands. Ndio maaana serikali inasema hii sio cattle rustling its something else

Pokots occupy West pokot county and tiaty constituency (formerly Pokot east) in baringo county. Most of the problems are caused by the pokots in baringo (tiaty) as they attack marakwets to the west, turkana to the north/NE, samburu to the east, “laikipia kikuyu” to the south east, and tugen to the south. Pokot south constituency in West pokot is also a problem coz of attacking turkana to the east and marakwet to the south na ndio their MP ameshikwa juzi for rustling.

They’re no longer attacking. They’re harrasing and forcing locals to leave. They no longer go just for cattle. Wanachoma nyumba, mashule, town centers pia haziachwi. They cut pregnant women open to kill the babies. They’re conquering territory

The problem here is the lethargy by our law enforcement, which is then complicated by the politics of the day, and those in power benefiting from these activities.

It’s not lethargy. Pokots have a home advantage and access to modern training from Israeli trained former kdfs

G.o.K doesn’t give this place the attention it ought to be getting, for reasons unbeknownst to many, the Sabaot tried that shenanigans and they were swiftly tamed, same as some coastal oufit.
Last year LootAll was politicizing G.o.K operations in North Rift. I’m not sure how he will approach the issue now.

It’s difficult to contain nomads. Sabaot were put down easy because while they are originally nomads. They have settled to an agrarian lifestyle in mt elgon
