Calm restored to Kpandai after Konkomba-Fulani ethnic clash

Calm
has
returned
to
the
Kpandai
community
in
the
Northern
region
following
a
clash
between
members
of
the
Konkomba
ethnic
group
and
Fulani
herdsmen.

Several
properties,
including
cattle
and
a
house
belonging
to
the
Fulani
chief
of
Kpandai,
were
destroyed.

According
to
a
Channel
One 
TV
source,
a
Konkomba
was
returning
home
after
work
when
some
men
suspected
to
be
armed
robbers
attacked
him
on
the
way,
trying
to
snatch
his
motorbike.

But
he
resisted,
resulting
in
him
being
inflicted
with
cutlass
on
several
parts
of
his
body.

The
incident
got
to
Kpandai
town
and
some
tribesmen
of
the
victim
went
to
the
Fulani
chief’s
house
and
burned
it,
killing
his
cattle
and
taking
the
meat
away.

It
took
the
intervention
of
the
police
and
military
in
Bimbilla
to
restore
calm.

The
District
Chief
Executive
for
Kpandai
further
called
for
security
backup
and
indicated
the
victim
has
been
transferred
to
the
Tamale
Teaching
Hospital
for
medical
treatment.
