County Commissioner Ahmed Omar said the officer has been interdicted pending investigations on his conduct at Takwei Primary School in Cherang’any/Chebororwa ward.

Tolgos was inspecting projects in the area when the incident occurred. The ranger, who was dressed in civilian clothes, had warned Tolgos and his entourage against setting foot in the school that is within a forest station.

He reportedly hurled insults at Tolgos before going to his house to wear a jungle jacket and retrieve his gun, corked it and threatened to shoot the governor before he was disarmed by colleagues.
