Ghana ethnic violence: At least 20 killed in Bawku town


At least 20 people have been killed in ethnic violence in Ghana’s Upper East region. The violence in the border town of Bawku is part of a dispute about who should be the area’s traditional leader. Hundreds have been displaced and businesses shut.

@kennieBeatx

This is happening in the northern part of Ghana

@emmanuelboateng5614

Aljazera stop this misleading reports. There's no ethnic violence in Ghana. Focus on your hamas and useless hezbollah propaganda mmoa

@TahiruHassan-l5h

Bad government

@emmaappiah2015

The people fighting dont want peace. They should go ahead

@habiluabakuri

Typical Aljazeera with their usual sensational reportage about anything Africa. A small tiny chieftaincy conflict in a small town is been blown out of proportion. Let BBC, CNN report about that in their Arab lands and hear them come out shouting about racism and islamophobia

@Nyanchera-xx3jp

I hate to see this happen to anyone. It has happened to Kenya several times and the trauma remains forever.

@Joshuaagyei856

lets be real here BOKO HARAM is in bawku town i m still on the search and they have spread in 5 group i cant expalin my key mapping here but Boko haram is in Ghana operating secretly

@Vm_malaysia

Ghana make una act fast ooh na so insecurity dey start

@GameC04

Listen Al Jazeera, specify the exact place and stop the fake news, it is the northern part within the Upper side that is what is happening just one town, not the whole Ghana, and and it is not Ghana ethnic conflict.

@DhadirMohamed-q2x

Why are the Muslim northerners being attacked

@simstech5697

It 17 not 20 people dead, please correct your title

@zakariiddrisu6292

Learn to share positive news in Africa for once , why don't you report the realities in your country?

The hunt has done us enough damage already, let us be foreign media.

@dennisarthur7582

A lot of people in the comment section are saying the reportage is bad. Aah, but what has Al Jazeera done good.

@dennisarthur7582

Al Jazeera no one is subscribing to your channel. Bullshit. Why do you spreed negative news about someone's country. So are you telling me we do not have such incidents in Qatar. When did you report on that, not even once that i know off.

@ewurakuainkum7297

Why the English voice overs when they are speaking English and it's even clearer than the person talking over them. It's insulting. Aljazeera do better. Additionally you are not even pronouncing the town correctly.

@akwasiboateng

May Almighty Yaweh Elohym Have On My Peaceful Ghana and Ghanaians Much Love Brothers and Sisters.

@Muhammadasari63

So sad

@kuchojoe500

No leadership in Ghana for the past 8 years…nana Addo destroyed everything in Ghana. He should be arrested. Nana Addo is a criminal mafia.
I pray God will save mother Ghana ❤❤❤

@philipasareokyere536

Al Jazeera indeed. I never trust them a bit. All they know is to propagate negative things that happen in Africa and not the violence, drinking bars and brothels in Qatar and the gulf countries. smh

@wilfredtandoh8402

Our midget president is non performing and useless

@hananiahbryan4630

All that Al Jazeera is interested in is spreading negative images about people and places but never about Qatar. Shame on you

@ExploreZone1

Its ignited by the incumbent government, the NPP, to prevent elections from taking place at Bawku in order to deprive its opponent, the NDC, from winning the December 7 elections as Bawku is purely NDC stronghold.

@BrotherAbbass

Those are Satan worshipers Nothing like traditional leaders. The only True leader we have is Christ. Fellow Ghanaians, stop worshipping gods of the world(Satan) and worship God.

@QineonMorame-u7b

Wahala ghana😅😂

@Blackwhite99251

Ghana has become lawless under npp
All this started because of the enstooling of the bawku naaba

@Kbaf4

Sensational Reporting. Bad reporting.

Chapter: The permissibility of selling animals for animals of the same kind and of different quality

Jabir reported:

There came a slave and pledged allegiance to Allah's Apostle on migration; he (the Holy Prophet) did not know that he was a slave. Then there came his master and demanded him back, whereupon Allah's Apostle said: Sell him to me. And he bought him for two black slaves << Sahih Muslim 1602 >>

@Kitogold

it just two groups occupying tiny section of the North their conflict is like an undying volcano even the wind can ignite it at anytime I can't recall how many times governments past and present have tried to resolve the issues between them once and for all, it's exhausting with those two groups to be honest

@calebappiagyei4007

I don't like this report. Very poor

@universaltvnews94

Dear Ghanaians,

You’ve been very peaceful. This journey you going on is a very dangerous one.

Stop while you still can!

@Ibrahim_garba

Nigerians now: 😂😂😂😂

@John-ud3pl

The government is irresponsible

@spankybartol1399

very bad reportage

@epiphanytelevision

The bawku conflict is an existential one.
