Among the dead were two Orma women, four men and two Pokomo men.
According to the Tana River County chairman Gure Golo, the attackers armed withfirearms attacked the village at around 5.30 am and killed people in the isolated village.
Mr Golo said that there is tension in the area that is about 1km from a police post situated at Semikaro.
"It is sad that the killings are going on in the county, while the police that were mandated to bring peace fail to do so but surface after attacks. We are asking them to prevent the attacks and not come after people have lost their lives," he said.
Tana Delta police boss Richard Mukwate confirmed the attack.
The injured were rushed to Malindi District Hospital by the Kenya Red Cross.
The Pokomo attackers, who suffered panga cuts, are at large. - Daily Nation
