This rumour is confirmed true
and is of high priority
– here's why:
A fight ensued over grazing land between two groups of young men who were herding. It started as a fight between two people and later they both received support from their peers and tribes men which led to the injuries. Village elders intervened in the matter to avoid future retaliation as both communities survive on herding.
