Two fighting tribes from Marsabit county made peace after battling each other for 200 years. The Gabra and Dasanaach people signed papers that promise to stop their wars forever. Leaders from both groups met at Illeret village to make this historic deal happen. The agreement creates a special team that will share water and land fairly between the communities. Government officials watched as the enemies became friends for the first time since anyone can remember.

Interior ministry leader Raymond Omollo said this marks a huge change for the region. He told reporters that five generations of families have suffered from the violence and bloodshed. The fighting has kept North Horr from growing economically and has scared away businesses and investors. Omollo promised the government will give money and support to help the peace last. Catholic Church priests helped bring the two sides together during long talks.

The government sent 18 special police officers to protect the area and keep troublemakers away. Officials want to copy this peace model and use it to stop fights between other tribes across Kenya. Member of Parliament Wario Guyo joined local chiefs and the deputy governor at the signing ceremony. The deal follows another successful peace agreement that ended border clashes between Garissa and Wajir counties. Community elders from both tribes shook hands and promised their children will live without fear.
