The police say they have restored calm at Enchi in the Western North Region after a violent chieftaincy dispute resulted in the deaths of four people and the injury to one other person.
Security has since been beefed up in the palace, Enchi township, and surrounding communities.
“Investigation is ongoing and crime scene experts and reinforcement teams have been dispatched from the national headquarters in Accra and surrounding Police Regions to support the Western North Regional Police Command,” the statement said.
“We wish to urge the public, in this case, our revered chieftaincy institution which is the embodiment of our customs, traditions and values to use peaceful and due judicial process in resolving differences to avoid such needless deaths.
“We will surely get the perpetrators of this violent attack arrested to face justice,” the police added.
