Maikona is a ward located in the North Horr sub-county of Marsabit County in northern Kenya. Situated in the arid northern frontier of the country, Maikona lies within the expansive Chalbi Desert region, characterized by its harsh desert landscape and extreme climatic conditions. This remote administrative division covers a substantial area typical of northern Kenyan wards, with sparse population distribution across its vast territory. As part of Kenya's devolved system of governance, Maikona functions as an electoral ward with its own local administrative structures. The area is predominantly inhabited by pastoralist communities, primarily from the Gabra ethnic group, who have adapted their livelihoods to the challenging desert environment through nomadic livestock rearing. Maikona's geographical position places it within one of Kenya's most remote regions, where access to basic services and infrastructure remains limited. The ward's administrative boundaries encompass several scattered settlements across the desert landscape, serving as focal points for the dispersed pastoralist population. For those seeking detailed location information, accessing postal code data for Maikona's various settlements requires understanding its position within Kenya's broader administrative hierarchy.
