Interior Cabinet Secretary, Fred Matiang'i, is set to declare the lawless Kapedo in Baringo County, a disturbed area.
CS Matiang'i is also set to issue a Gazette Notice imposing a dusk-to-dawn curfew from 6 pm-6 am in a bid to flush out bandits who have been terrorizing communities in Baringo and Turkana counties.
Last week, tension escalated in the region following the killing of a senior police officer shortly after a peace meeting at Kapedo.
