A man in his mid-fifties has been gunned down by unknown assailants at
Nkonya Ahenkro in the Volta region.
The deceased said to be an elder of the Nkonya Ahenkro traditional
area was working on his farm Monday morning when he was shot.
Paramount chief of the area Nana Okortor Kofi III told Joy News the
shooting is not linked to the long-standing land dispute between the
people of Nkonya and Alavanyo.
Speaking to Joy News Tuesday morning, Divisional Police Commander in
charge of Kpando, Chief Superintendent Gyawu also said preliminary
investigations suggest the shooting is an isolated one.
He said they are working to bring the perpetrator to book but urged
the public to assist the police with investigation.
In February this year, a 47-year-old man, Peter Addo, was also shot in his farm.
