The bodies of eight Fulani herders slain in Zakoli, a village in the Northern Region's Yendi Municipality, have been buried in Tamale.
The corpses of the deceased were taken from the Tamale Teaching Hospital Mortuary, where Islamic prayers were offered, and then carried to the cemetery on Sunday for burial.
Malam Osman, Alhaji Baako, Yahaya Jallo, Kadiru Jallo, Umar Jallo, Haruna Jallo, Saibu Wubi, and an unnamed individual were among the dead.
