This is coming amid speculation of ransom paid to secure their release. The consistent destruction of farmlands by alleged herders is causing hardships to farmers with concern of food shortages. There hasn't been much that the government is doing to bring the criminality to a half except for statements which those affected are saying it's not enough.
