The New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) Constituency Chairman for Abuakwa North, Alhaji Seidu, commonly known as Alhaji Opass, has voiced his exasperation as his farm fell victim to marauding cattle.
The incident marks a recurring nightmare for Alhaji Opass, who laments the lack of adequate response despite numerous complaints lodged in the past.
Suspicions linger over potential connections between the herdsmen responsible for the devastation and certain authorities within the Municipality.
Alhaji Opass, who has invested substantially in his farm, faces significant losses following the wanton destruction of his crops, with the latest incident occurring on March 23, 2024.

The identity of behind the cattle isners remains elusive, prompting mounting concerns among farmers in the area.

He stressed the importance of safeguarding the lives and property of residents, emphasizing that such matters transcend political agendas.
