“We saw people destroying public infrastructure and properties. They must be charged in a court of law," he said on Tuesday.
The county chief condemned the action terming it barbaric.
"This is not fair at all nor right at all, let’s leave politics aside. The property destroyed costed money. Funds must be made available for repair or new installation, something which was not budgeted for," Sakaja added.
