Governor Samuel Tunai has asked General Service Unit (GSU) officers conducting a disarmament exercise along the Transmara West and East border to stop harassing residents.
Reacting to complaints of brutality by residents, Mr Tunai asked the officers to conduct the operation in a humane manner and target culprits instead of residents. “As a county we commend the Government’s move to weed out illegal arms that have been causing insecurity in Transmara. What we do not support however is the brutality meted out on innocent locals. The officers should target the criminals,” he said .
