The situation is really getting worse,but can one blame the Fulanis alone?We should also blame our authorities for allowing this things to happen.Ghana has become so lawless that everybody is doing what he/she likes.People who are supposed to enforce the laws,will rather take bribe and turn the other way.
Corruption is a more security threat to Ghana,than the Fulanis.If the laws we have in the Country can be enforced,there is no way the Fulanis or any other person can do what they are doing,not only in Northern Ghana,but Ghan as a whole.

So because of the useless ECOWAS, these fulanis can troop into the country, murder & destroy people's property & still not face deportation?

the problem with this northern mentality is that thanks to jj they now all have an unquenchable thirst for power but never to serve in a team or accept their fellow countrymen . just look around in Accra and study the majority of the businesses owned by these northerners and in the majority of the medium and Small sized businesses you notice they only employ their fellow northerners and practically never employ an Akan . Today in Accra the largest religious building in the country will be the mosque being build on our national park at Nima donated by Turkey confirming the Islamic domination of Ghana. Tribalism mixed with chauvinism and despotism from the north has now equaled the hegemony of the ewes . A.C.C.R.A any criminal can roam about so we have them everywhere now . even at the scholarship secretariat hardly ever is an Akan awarded the privilege to go abroad and study now . The Akans are the majority but because most continue to sleep or blindly trust the other tribes these atrocities are taking place . We look at the political strategy of the NDC and see the typical Hannibal wench when he turned the strengths of the mighty Roman army against themselves as they are doing to the Akans . From the south they use part of the Fantis and from the North the Brongs , from behind we have the chariot onslaught of the Gas Ewes Krobos. Yes the political landscape reflects a war which is only meant to destroy the right of self governance of the God's chosen nation of Africa the Akan . For them its a big deal who leads the NPP but we really don't care as our movement grows stronger by the hour as more and more Akans wake up to reality of this dire situation . We did not ask for this war but we will fight it and be victorious as God is with us . Long live the Republic of Akan

Now that Northern Region is also crying out of the bad activities of FULANI herdsman, Mahama and his insensitive Gbevlo Lartey will wake up and check the situatuon. The wicked Mahama was insensitive when the cries came from Ashanti and Eastern Regions. Now theu will rise. Wicked and heartless Mahama clearly has ethnic cleansing agenda in Ashanti and Eastern Regions.

You are complaining about the negative activities of the fulani herdsmen, how about their contributions to the national economy? Do we think of how much it would cost us if we were to meet our meat requirements through imports alone? Ghanaians also commit crimes, even more than the fulani.

We can't deny their positive contributions but they really need to stop destroying other people's properties. We would rather have them leave the country than disturb us

If the Authorities are listening, then they quickly take the necessary actions to deal with this fulani nuisance! They have killed and maim our people for all this time and the government is doing nothing about it. These are people who are slicing the throat of innocent peoiple in Nigeria. For hiw losh should the government allowed Ghanaians to be killed in tha name of Ecowas? I urge thew communities concerned, to stand up and killed and destroy these nuisance who are making life unbearable for them. I wish they are in my area! If the government has no sense to protect her own people, then it is only right that the people do that themselves. Kill these fulanis and destroy them for good!

THESE FULANIS STARTED THESE ACTIVITIES IN THE NORTHERN REGION AROUND 2001. THE POLICE AND MILITARY WERE ABLE TO CONTAIN THEM. HOWEVER, THEY PAY CATTLE TO CHIEFS WHO GIVE THEM THE POWER TO GRAZE THEIR CATTLE ON PEOPLE'S FARMS. UNTIL THE GOVERNMENT DECIDES TO TAKE COMPREHENSIVE AND FINAL ACTION TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM, FARMERS WILL ALWAYS SUFFER IN THEIR OWN HOMELAND.

We should allow the Fulani herdsmen to do their thing. After all, are they not only contributing their quota to the national agenda of destroying the country?

Somebody and his right and somebody else his land and his freedom to decide who he welcome into his land. Fulanis should go back to Bourkina Faso, Mali, Niger, Nigeria and Chad where they belong.

You are either a chief or a BIG SHOT, that is those who take bribes from the Fulani to stay on and do what they want. We should shun selfishness and be united in dealing with the situation. IT IS SIMPLY TOO MUCH!

Thier non-European way of life will tech us a whole lot: about how they deal with life and death, their traditional medicine, their rich history, and way of life.

The nations that make up ECOWAS would do well to learn from them

Marcus, I think Comfort is not spewing any anti-Fulani message. All that she is reporting is what these herdsmen and their cows are doing to farmers in various regions in the country.

No where in the developed nations where ranchers or flock owners can take their animals to glaze and destroy folks farms. In the developed world, you need to pay fees before you take your cows to go and glaze on Government lands. It is like obtaining a license before you go and fish. As far as the Fulani herdsmen are in business which nobody is against that, they do not have right to move herds around to destroy others peoperties. They need to find ways and means to raise their cows.

Their life, death, traditional medicine and their rich history issues are not the message at stake and I think Comfort did not say anything wrong about their personal nature. E&OE.

That's what makes Ms. Comfort's story difficult to believe. It would be fool hardy on their part, Mr. Koblynton, "to graze and destroy folks farms" , I mean, deliberately destroy farms and properties in the Northern Region with blatant impunity. Hard to believe, Sir.

This article is about the fifth in this medium calling on Gov't to do something, but NOTHING is being done, WHY? Because some "untouchables" are either owners of the cattle or are bribed by the Fulanis to stay on. Some chiefs are most notorious in collaborating with these Fulanis. So my brothers, the problem is our politicians and Chiefs.

Mahama, Gbevlo Lartey, Asiedu Nketia, Nunoo-Mensah, Akuoko Sarpong (Agogohene} Mills, Alhaji Grusah and a lot others. The question is why are the Fulanis acting as if they are under no law? Because they know that some top politicians are behind them and they careless about who or what they kill or maim.
