A two-year old Fulani child has been burnt to death at Atebubu in the Brong Ahafo region.

Isha Isah was burnt while sleeping in a made-shit tent house providing shelter for her family.

Her parents had reportedly gone out when the unknown individuals set the tent and ten others in the neighborhood ablaze.

The chief of Fulanis in the area Fulani Musah told the media the father of the deceased had gone to the mosque while the mother had gone out to fetch water when the incident occurred.

The development comes in the wake of the raging tension between Fulani nomads and natives in Agogo. A number of security officials have currently been dispatched to the area to flush out the nomads.
