Underperforming local government administrators will be sacked and replaced with immediately, Interior CS Fred Matiang’i has said.
Matiang’i noted that chiefs and their assistants especially those in areas where cattle rustling are rampant should work around the clock to end the menace.
"Cattle rustling should be fought by all means. Local government administrators who fail to produce the thieves will be sacked and be replaced," he said at Nyamira on Friday.
The CS warned that anyone found committing crime will not be spared by the law.
“Cattle rustlers in Borabu Nyamira County must end. The criminals who are being involved in crimes will be arrested and prosecuted because no one is above the law,” he noted.
He called on police officers to intensify security patrols along the borders where cattle rustling has been reported in the recent days to ensure no livestock is stolen.
