NAIROBI, Kenya, Aug 25- Police in Meru are looking for a prison warder who is missing amid claims he is on a mission to kill in Thika.
The warder has been missing since Tuesday morning and is armed with a G3 rifle loaded with 20 bullets.
Police say he was last seen at Kangeta shopping centre carrying the weapon in a sack and was headed to Thika for a mission following an alleged disagreement with his wife over some Sh900,000.
