This comes just a day after a local daily newspaper ranked Nakuru, Kiambu and Nairobi as the most risky areas in terms of Kenyans security.

Other places include Lamu, Mombasa, Garissa and Mandera where several people have been hit by terror attacks in the past.

Addressing journalists in his office in Nakuru town, the police Commander asked the residents of Nakuru to ignore those claims.

"I urge the people of Nakuru not to take these claims seriously since they cannot be justified. No-one was consulted when these reports were made which breaches fairness," Said Mr Barua.
