On his side upon receiving the suspects, the County Secretary and Head of Public Service in the Turkana County Government Peter Eripete thanked the government of Uganda for the chance to graze in the country and the handover of the suspects.

I was curious if you ever thought of changing the page layout of your site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?
