Terik court battle against Vihiga County Government rages on.

The case where the Terik community has sued the Vihiga County Government for further marginalizing them through non-consideration for County government jobs will be determined on July 19th 2018.

“The  Governor of Vihiga County, Hon Wilbur Ottichilo, has completely refused to recognize us as a community and we had had no alternative but to go to court” Said Mr. John Bor, The Chairman of the Terik Council of Elders.

Mr. Bor was speaking outside Kisumu Law Courts where a multitude of Terik community members had turned up to follow the case.

The case represents one of the many occasions where the Terik community has been denied their rights in their long history for recognition.
