Fulani herdsmen in Asante Akyem Agogo are powerless now – Hon. Francis Oti Boateng.
As part of the occasional town hall meetings to unveil the government’s policy implementation agenda, DCE of Asante Akyem Agogo, Hon. Francis Oti Boateng has rolled out strategic modalities that the government have put in place to curtail the alleged activities of the Fulani herdsmen.
According to the President’s representative in the district, the Fulani herdsmen have always had severe conflicts with the indigenes. Farmers in the area continue to bemoan the destruction of their farm produce by the cattle rearers and their animals.
To solve this menace, the President has donated three helicopters for effective policing and monitoring in the area.
Speaking to the press, the honourable DCE made it clear that based on intelligence gathered by the police, the Fulani herdsmen are planning series of kidnappings to pool resources for the celebration of their Christmas festivity.
He stressed that he will do all within his powers to make the Fulani herdsmen unhappy with their negative motives.
