Alhaji Grunsah said herds of cattle at Agogo belong to three people who are Ghanaians, including he Alhaji Grunsah, Alhaji Dauda and Alhaji Salia. Agogomanhene, Nana Akuoko Sarpong has filed a writ of summons to eject the Fulani herdsmen from the land.
He however denied reports that an indigene was gunned down by the Fulanis, but fell from a Motor bike and died.
The Member of Parliament for Asante Akyem north in the Ashanti Region, Kwame Anyimadu Antwi says Fulani herdsmen in the area should leave their land, because the people are fed up with heinous activities of Fulani herdsmen in the area.
He explained that people are now afraid to visit their farms for fear of being killed by the herdsmen or being raped.
Mr Kwame Anyimadu Antwi said this when commenting on activities of Fulani herdsmen in the Afram Plains area on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem on Friday.

MORE YOUNGSTERS HAVING UNSAFE SEX
The World Health Organisation says young people across the globe are having more unprotected sex and know less about effective contraception options.
It says the currently 11%–13% of teens in Ghana are having unsafe sex.
The WHO says the rate is low but worrying because there is high awareness of the various contraceptive methods among adolescence and youths and yet some do not use them.
Some people who spoke to Adom news believe bathing or showering after sex will prevent pregnancy.
Others believe that having intercourse during menstruation is an effective form of contraception.
