Residents of Busia County have been challenged to collaborate with security officers in a bid to ensure peace in the County.
Speaking to residents of Teso South Sub County at Kemodo Market on Tuesday, Busia County Commissioner Mwachaunga Chaunga noted that there are criminal suspects terrorising the local residents using illegal guns.
“There are different types of illegal guns that are being used in this area,” he said, adding that the guns are being used to steal from innocent traders in Nambale, Busia town, and other areas across the county.
He urged the local residents to report such criminal suspects to the designated County and sub-county security team leaders in order to restore peace.
“If you refuse to share such information, these illegal guns will be used to terrorise people, steal their property, and finally destroy the county’s economy,” he said.
