Hike receiving the militia, Butungi encouraged the gesture of voluntary approach to disarm operations and assured all warriors voluntarily handing over the armaments of their safety and security.

“As we give you (Anyakun Emmanuel) a certificate. You are now a free man and I urge you to persuade Karachuna’s to do the same,” he said
