The Fulani Community in Ghana has condemned incessant attacks on them and their livestock, stressing that perceptions that they are criminals are false
While praising residents of the Upper East Region for sparing them attacks, Yakubu Musah Barry, the National Secretary of Tabital Pulaaku, a Fulani Association, minced no words in condemning attacks on them and their livestock, urging the security agencies to act fast to stem the tide.
“We are most grateful that this region we never experienced such challenges but across the country, we have a security problem that is facing all the Fulanis across the country especially our herdsmen.
We are being killed and nothing is being done and this is what we are coming to propagate and then we thank the region for the coexistence with the Fulanis here in this region but the other regions, we are facing much problem with the herdsmen, not even destroying farms but they are being attacked, killed and kill their animals and take the meat along that is pure criminal, that is stealing.
Without provocation they kill the animals and even kill the herdsman and they take the meat away. We’ve reported, it has happened in the Northern region, North-East region, Savannah, Eastern and also the Bono East Region which is our main concern so we are calling the authorities especially the security to beef up their stand among us so that we are all equal to the Constitution of this country.
