The elephants have been a nuisance to the residents since they destroy their farms and have resulted in loss of more than five lives in Kibwezi and Makindu in the last few months.

The death resulted in demonstrations by the residents who wanted action to be taken to stop the menace.

Area MP Jessica Mbalu promised action and called for fencing of the area to stop human wildlife conflict.

The KWS said they had dispatched a team to kill the elephant.
