Nandi District

Nandi District was an administrative district in the Rift Valley Province of Kenya. Its capital town was Kapsabet.

Following the transfer of some of territory from Uganda to British East Africa, Nandi District was a subdivision of Kisumu Province. In 1929, it was when it was transferred to the newly-created Nzoia Province. In 1934, the district was transferred to Rift Valley Province after the latter absorbed Nzoia Province. In 1963, Nandi District was one of the forty districts of Kenya.

In 2005, Nandi District was eliminated after it was split to form Nandi North and Nandi South, and later Nandi Central, Nandi East and Tindret. All the four districts had a combined population of 752,965.

As per the new law new counties were to be created based on the districts of Kenya that existed as at 1992. This effectively led to the creation of Nandi County.

The topography of the former district is dominated by the Nandi Hills. The local people are mostly of the Nandi tribe.
