Journalist angry over stray animals on his pepper farm

The Upper East Regional Correspondent of the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC), Mr Samuel Ayammah has lashed out to owners of stray animals in the Bolgatanga Municipality for failing to control their animals.

The journalist who doubles as a pepper farmer in the Municipality, sent a strong-worded caution to owners of animals, especially cattle to control them.

Speaking to word news in Bolgatanga Mr Samuel Ayamah said “the animals had destroyed portions of his farm, and wondered if he would get bumper harvest as compared to his yield last year.

“The cattle invaded my farm this morning and destroyed almost everything. I am very angry. I told the owner to control  them, but he will not listen,” Mr Ayammah told colleague journalists in Bolgatanga.

The Correspondent further called on colleague journalists in the Region to educate members of the public on the need to control animals in the Region especially the Bolgatanga Municipal Assembly to institute proper measures to ensure all stray animals are arrested as farming activities were at its peak.

Even though some journalists who had over the years benefitted from his pepper, jokingly teased him on the havoc caused by the cattle, they however sympathised with him and advised him to get a farm guide to protect his farm.
