The challenges we face are not mere statistics or headlines. They are real life manifestations that affect the lives of our people, disrupt the functioning of our institutions and communities, thus impeding the growth of our region. Instances of criminal activities, boundary tree, kidnapping, assassinations and communal and religious crises and threats to life have shaken the very foundation of our societies. As leaders and stakeholders it is incumbent upon us to come together transcending our differences to find sustainable solutions that will quell these threats and pave the way for a brighter future. Part of my prayer was for the President to set up a joint tax force which includes the army, the police, the air force, the civil defence to comb the bush areas because we have a massive bush around that cattle market. But what I'm seeing over the time because I travel over the weekend, this prayer nothing has been done, they have not moved any inch inside the bush because the kidnapping keep increasing.
