He said, complains received from farmers about the herdsmen are too much in his office so he called them to a meeting today in order to address the problem but unfortunately, out of the (126) registered members only (56) honoured his invitation which he was not happy about, the Assembly will meet and decide on a sort of punishment to be meted them but all those who did not register should evacuate the Municipality within two weeks. He stressed.
