Police in Homa Bay County, Kenya are investigating an incident in which a clergyman was assaulted by residents and his car burnt after being mistaken for a livestock thief while he was having fun with a woman in a thicket. The clergyman, who belongs to a local Christian church, lost the car in Jwelu village, Kakumu Sub-location, Ramula Location, within Rachuonyo East Sub-county. The incident began when residents spotted the clergymans vehicle parked in a thicket. Suspecting that the vehicle might belong to thieves intending to steal cattle in the area, they mobilised themselves. Their suspicion was fuelled by the frequent livestock thefts in the region, where small vehicles are often used to transport stolen livestock. When the residents approached the vehicle, they found the clergyman with a woman. They confronted the clergyman and demanded an explanation for his presence in the thicket. However, the pastor attempted to flee, prompting them to apprehend him. While one group of the mob continued to assault the clergyman, another group set his vehicle ablaze. Residents claimed they discovered some trousers in the vehicle We dont know his exact purpose, but he was found in the vehicle with a woman. There were also some trousers, said one resident. The fire caused significant damage to the vehicle. The mob continued to assault the clergyman until some individuals who recognised him intervened. They informed the mob that they were attacking a pastor. Upon learning that the victim was a pastor, the mob released him. However, he had sustained serious head injuries and was rushed to a hospital for treatment. Meanwhile, the woman fled when she saw the clergyman being assaulted. Rachuonyo East Police Commander Laban Omol confirmed that investigations into the incident had begun. He stated that DCI officers were handling the matter. The officers will engage with residents to help establish the truth of what happened, Omol said. He urged residents to refrain from taking the law into their own hands. “Let residents avoid taking the law into their own hands, as doing so can unjustly punish innocent people, Omol warned.

Tension in Abia as monarch raises alarm over land acquisitions by suspected herdsmen

The traditional ruler of Okahia Autonomous Community in Obingwa Local Government Area of Abia State, Eze Okey Ananaba, has raised serious concerns over what he described as a looming security threat caused by massive land acquisitions by suspected herdsmen in the region.
Speaking during a sensitization visit and town hall meeting with officials of the Greater Aba Development Authority (GADA), Eze Ananaba alleged that herders had acquired over 5,000 plots of land in strategic border communities such as Mgboko Umuanunu—near the boundary with Akwa Ibom State—and Akpaa Mbato, which lies behind the National Institute for Nigerian Languages (NINLAN) in Ovom, Aba.
The monarch warned that these land grabs could serve as operational bases for attacks, pointing to the destruction of farmlands and the presence of illegal firearms, including AK-47 rifles, in the hands of some herders. He said local vigilantes and farmers have received death threats from the herders when they tried to resist the encroachment.
Eze Ananaba lamented that traditional rulers in Obingwa had submitted several petitions to the Abia State Government urging intervention, but their concerns have been largely ignored. “We are the eyes of the government in our communities,” he said. “If the government continues to ignore our reports, the people will suffer.”

Some residents also accused unnamed traditional rulers of facilitating these land deals and called on Governor Alex Otti to launch a thorough investigation into the trend. They urged the Ministry of Lands to stop approving large land acquisitions without proper scrutiny.
The monarch’s warning echoes growing fears that the situation could escalate into violence similar to the deadly herders attacks witnessed in Benue and Plateau states.
