He said that his commanders were on the ground and working assiduously to apprehend the perpetrators. He also called for calm and appealed to the Fulani leadership to talk to their people to maintain cool heads and trust the enforcement to deliver.

Dr. Dampare added that anyone with information should not hesitate to contact the police as that helps in the investigations and swift arrest of suspects.

The IGP reiterated the police administration's commitment to work closely with the Fulani community in Ghana to ensure safety for all.

On the other side of the call, the President of the National Council for Fulani Chiefs, Alhaji Iddrisu Mohammed Bingle thanked the IGP for taking a keen interest in the matter and assured that there wouldn't be any reprisals.

Adib Saani, Security Expert also thanked the IGP and said that he was happy state authorities have shown seriousness in bringing closure to this matter.
