Meanwhile, His Excellency, the President will visit the community of Faraba tomorrow to pay his condolences and respect to the families of the victims.

The Chairperson of the Village Development Committee, who spoke on behalf of the Community stated that Faraba is a peaceful community and not known for violence. He added that contrary to what is being spread on the media, the incident was not political but rather prompted by the need to protect the vital interest of their community.
