The Fulani community in Ghana has raised concerns about the maltreatment being meted out to its members following an armed robbery attack leading to the death of one person.

On Tuesday, Sept 14, 2021, a robbery attack on Fulani’s at Lamtei, a suburb of Nsawam saw some Fulani caretakers tied to a rope including a married woman who was raped.

Mr Yakubu Musah Barry, the General Secretary of Tabital Pulaaku International Ghana-Chapter in a statement released on Monday, September 20, 2021  berated the media for ignoring the heinous crime against Fulanis calling for equal treatment for the Fulani man anytime they’re at the receiving ends of attacks.

He, however,sounded a warning to the Fulani’s to shy away from all forms of criminalities.

“We also sounding a strong warning to our people to desist from all forms of criminalities since we are not ready to shield any perpetrator who is victimized by the law.”
