Karamoja clans meet to foster peace.

17th June 2023 News Editor 0 Comments

Three clans of the Karimojong have held a roundtable dialogue, in a bid to foster peace amongst them.

The clans include the Jie, Bokora and Matheniko.

While addressing them, the anti-stock theft unit commandant, Senior Commissioner of police Elias Kasirabo urged the three clans to come up with a covenant on peace, something he says will put an end to raids and killings among the communities.

Kasirabo noted that Karamoja will attain its full potential once communities front peace as a number one priority.

He also re-echoed to the traders to follow the gazetted routes as they transport their animals to the markets.

On the other hand, the Regional Police Commander, Mt.Moroto region ACP Francis Chemusto reminded communities of the reprimand awarded to those engaged in cattle rustling.

Meanwhile, the third division commander, Maj.Gen.Don Nabasa who was also in attendance called upon the youths to return the remaining guns still in their possession

Nabasa assured communities of their protection by security forces and cautioned those who have already returned the guns not to slide back into acts of criminality.
