Poor communication network in northern Meru is a hindrance to curbing common cattle rustling.

Meru County Commander Patrick Lumumba, speaking after he and other senior security officers returned from a mission to recover over 100 goats and sheep stolen from Antubetwe Kiongo in Igembe North, said lack of communication boosters had led to theft of many herds.
