Members of the Turkana community and their counterparts from Nyangatom of Ethiopia, who have been at loggerheads over the past few days over the loss of guns on either side, have resolved to make peace.

The animosity between the two communities started after a gun belonging to a Kenyan National Police Reservist (NPR) was stolen, just days after a gun belonging to a herder from Nyangatom went missing in a grazing field.
