Famous Moi-era goat auction gets new life next week

Baringo County will next week revive the goat auction made famous during retired President Daniel arap Moi’s regime when who-was-who in the public and private sector competed in making the highest bids.

The Kimalel Goat Auction, which started in 1986 but went quiet in 2002, will be revived as the Kimalel Culture Fair and Goat Auction as the county seeks to enhance its tourist offerings.
