I don't understand this country anymore, does it mean that these herdsmen are above the law.

Government seems to be unserious on this matter, they are busy inaugurating committees that will look into it while the killings continue unabated.

They rear cows, but have guns! Who is deceiving who?

Lol, easy bro. But to be sincere it seems the government gave those men free hand to kill. Imagine for past one week this killing is going on nothing has been done to address the situation.

More and more of these violent animals will continue streaming into the country as a result of climate change.
The Agatus and other northern minorities should Unite ,move their women and kids out and make the land unbearable for trespassers.
