Samburu County is a county in the former Rift Valley Province, Kenya. It covers an area of roughly 21,000 km² (8,000 mi²) in northern Kenya where the Samburu,Turkana and many other tribes live. It stretches north from the Wuaso Ng'iro River to the south of Lake Turkana and also includes Mount Kulal which lies just east of Lake Turkana. Within Samburu County are the towns of Maralal (capital and largest town),〔http://kenya.usaid.gov/sites/default/files/profiles/Samburu%20County%2023%20Jan%202012.pdf〕 Baragoi, Archers Post, South Horr, Wamba and Lodosoit. It also includes the Samburu National Reserve and Buffalo Springs National Reserve, Mount Ng'iro, Ndoro Mountains, Mathews Range (Ol Doinyo Lenkiyo), Kirisia Hills, and Loroki Forest. There is a town named Samburu in Kwale County also in Kenya, but is not related to Samburu County or Samburu people. ==County subdivisions== The county has three constituencies: Samburu East Constituency, Samburu Central and Samburu North Constituency. The headquarters of Samburu Central is Maralal, Samburu North is Baragoi and headquarters for Samburu East is Wamba. There has been controversy about the headquarters of Samburu East. Some schools of thought proposed Archers Post, a rapidly growing town, while others proposed Wamba town a less rapidly growing town. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Samburu County」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
