Community elders based in Bubisa, Marsabit County have Friday morning surrendered three firearms to security officers based in Turbi.

Through the area Chief Joseph Jirm, the elders surrendered two Ak-47 assault rifles and a G3 rifle.

This comes after a call by the government to the warring communities in the area to embrace peace as the surest way of assuring sustainable development.

The sub-county security team comprising of police, DCI and National government officers welcomed the move and urged other elders to emulate the good example set by their Bubisa counterparts.
