Interior CS Kithure Kindiki on Wednesday held talks with leaders from Baringo county over cattle rustling and banditry in the region.
The talks aim to find a lasting solution to the menace.
"Working closely with stakeholders, the government is pursuing lasting solutions to perennial conflicts in the North Rift," Kindiki said.
"The meeting explored ways of urgently entrenching security across the region and the promotion of ideal policies and programmes to support cohesion and economic growth."
The meeting comes in the wake of a statement by President William Ruto on longstanding insecurity in the region.
“Our discussion was on ways to combat cattle rusting and other related challenges in their region,” Kindiki said.
