Two children have given a chilling account of how a herdsman allegedly butchered their 15-year-old brother in their presence at Nhyiaeso, a small farming village in the Asante Akyem North Municipality of the Ashanti region.
The unidentified cattle herder, according to the children, accosted them at a water source and inflicted machete wounds on the boy, killing him instantly.
The villagers searched the area minutes later, arrested three herdsmen and handed them over to the Agogo Police.
The indigenes have therefore called for government's intervention to prevent a resurgence of an age-old conflict between the community and herdsmen.
Luv FM's Erastus Asare Donkor was in the community and now reports.
