Police in Kenya have arrested two chiefs for inflating figures in the ongoing national census.

Regional Administrator Loyford Kibaara says they allowed enumerators to count people twice in Wajir county.

Reports indicate that more chiefs in the county and neighbouring Mandera county are being sought for the same offence.

The arrests have generated a stir on social media because census data determines the amount of money that county governments receive.
