Busia residents warned against disobeying rule of law

Busia residents have been urged to abide by the laws of the country and stop bending the Constitution to suit their whims and individual interests.

Speaking during the inauguration of Olepito Sub Location Assistant Chief, Reuben Ekeya, the Deputy County Commissioner (DCC), Teso South Sub-county, John Kichwen, noted with concern that a section of the residents had resorted to taking the law into their own hands by torching vehicles involved in road accidents along Busia-Kisumu road. "In the past two weeks, three vehicles have been burnt down in this county.

I want to condemn those actions and warn the residents involved that this action is against the law.

During an accident, we are supposed to help to save lives, not burn the vehicle," he said.
