The Bono Regional Security Council (REGSEC) has summoned a meeting with the Association of Fulani Community in the region, to discuss ways of finding lasting solutions to conflict between farming communities, mainly farmers, and nomadic cattle herders, in the region.
This follows recent disturbances in the Berekum Municipality over the destruction of farmlands by cattle in some communities within the municipality.
The affected communities include Kotaa, Namasua, Tewbabi and Abisaase, all within the Berekum Municipality.
The perennial conflict between farming communities and nomadic cattle herders has become a major security concern for the region, as it has often led to the destruction of lives and properties.
