Quickly shut down donkey hide processing facilities — Bolgatanga Assembly urged

The Bolgatanga Municipal Assembly in the Upper East Region has been urged to fast-track measures to clamp down on the processing and exportation of donkey hides currently taking place in the area. Donyaepa and the Ghana National Poultry Network Association (GAPNET), two non-governmental organisations which have been working to protect donkeys and the mass slaughter of donkeys for hide from going extinct made the call at the side-lines of stakeholder engagement in Bolgatanga.
