Your Reporter Misquoted Me

Sir- A recent story in your paper on February 8, with the headline, "Chebrot asks Sabiny to surrender weapons" was erroneous. My correct name is Chebet Maikut and not Chebrot Maikut. I said that the Sabiny community who are in possession of grenades and bombs should surrender them either to security agencies or local security committees. The reporter implied that I advocated for the disarming of people who possess guns. Speaking about the deeds of the late Ben Mangusho, I said that Kapchorwa District Farmers Association, which is one of the members of Uganda National Farmers Association, should assist the family of the deceased with payment of any due salary. I did not say UNFA will take over absolute support of the late's family. Chebet Maikut MP Kween County, Kapchorwa
