Some of the sheep stolen during an invasion at Northlands farm owned by former president Uhuru Kenyatta's family on March 27, 2023, have been returned.

It is believed that few individuals in cars, suspected to be aides of two Nairobi politicians, have been dropping off the sheep near the farm.

On Wednesday night, five of the stolen sheep were found abandoned at Dandora police station and were identified by security managers at the farm through special marks on the animals before being returned.

The farm's security manager, Patrick Masinde, confirmed the return of 18 sheep and noted that they were emaciated due to poor husbandry as they are not traditional breeds that feed freely.

He urged those who still hold the stolen stock to return them peacefully.
