Two Men Shot Dead By Nomadic Herdsmen In Ashanti Region

Two people have been killed in two separate shooting incidents at Drobonso and Agogo in the Ashanti Region in what is believed to be a reprisal attack by nomadic cattle herders.

One of the victims, 25-year-old Abdul Latif, was allegedly shot at close range with a single barrel gun.

He was killed near David Akuraa between Sekyere Afram Plains and Agogo while returning from a funeral.

Reports say angry some residents of Afirisre from Agogo Central District had earlier shot an unidentified man believed to be a nomad.

The locals attacked the herdsman following suspicion that the death of a farmer was caused by nomadic herdsmen.
