Some Fulani Herdsmen have attacked Nurses working at Dwerebease CHPs Compound in the Kwahu East District of the Eastern Region.
The Fulani Herdsmen allegedly stormed the health facility in attempt to ransack the facility leading to altercation and gunshot.
However, the Fulani herdsmen managed to take away motorbike belonging to the CHPs but was later retrieved by some residents of the community who later got wind of the attack after the Fulani herdsmen hid it in a bush.
Information gathered indicates that, the Kwahu East District Director of Health after a meeting with the Nurses, ordered for their withdrawal from the community on safety issues and the fact that attack on nurses by the Fulani herdsmen is repetitive.
However, the Krontihene of Dwerebease, Nana Danso Agyei and his elders had intervened pleading to the nurses to remain at post as efforts are made to provide them adequate security through Community Watch -Dog committee.
Dwerebease is notorious for clashes between Fulani herdsmen and Farmers which has led to deaths and injuries.
The farmers in the community have been in loggerheads with the weapon wielding Fulani herdsmen over destruction of their farms and threats.
This intermittently sparks violence between the two parties, hence there is fear that this incident would renew violence in the community.
During such violent clashes, nurses and teachers flee the community for their safety.
Despite dispatching “operation cow leg” teams to the community to flush out Fulani herdsmen during insecurity state, the menace still exists as farmers continue to suffer destruction of farms by cattle of the Fulani herdsmen.
