State House Chief of Staff Felix Koskei urges Luo-Kalenjin communities to unite and focus on the development.
Koskei said both being Nilotic groups, acrimonious competition between the two communities was unnecessary.
Speaking in Rarieda where he presided over a funds drive at St Luke’s Ndara Parish ACK, Koskei said the two communities must just live harmoniously.
“We share so many things, even the language, and the pronunciation is almost similar,” he said.
Koskei said the brotherhood between the two communities dates centuries back and will not be wiped out by a few elements stoking division.
“I just live along the border at Chemelil, we’re a family and anybody who discredits our unity will be forced to tore the line,” he said.
The statement by the State House chief comes amid a border dispute at the Sondu market leading to deaths, destruction of property, and displacement of families.

Koskei further announced that the administration of President William Ruto will deliver development to every part of the country without any discrimination.
“This government will bring development to Nyanza just like any other region, you like it or not,” he said.
He was accompanied by ICT Cabinet Secretary Eliud Owalo and Principal Secretary for Interior Raymond Omollo.
CS Owalo on his part praised the Kenya Kwanza government for working with the Nyanza region, a region that has always been on the Opposition side.
Owalo noted that the current government has strived to include the people of Nyanza in driving the nation toward an economic recovery.
“Since independence, this is the first government that has endured total inclusion of our people in running the affairs of the government,” he said.
