This follows the March 21st2021 incident where the Kenyan Turkana criminals killed three geologists from the ministry of energy and mineral development and two UPDF officers in Moroto.
Speaking at the handover of two guns from the Turkana County in Kenya, Jeremiya noted that issues of security are very sensitive especially at cross border points.
He has now called for technical and operational interventions to enable the peaceful co-existence of both communities.
