Otumfuo’s entourage ambushed, windows shattered at Techiman
Several individuals, including a child, were injured this evening when a group of youths, believed to be from Techiman, attacked buses traveling from Nkoranza to Kumasi.
The buses had earlier escorted the Asantehene to a funeral in Nkoranza.
Reports indicate that prior to the funeral, Techiman youths had issued threats to attack anyone using the route through Techiman, following an incident involving the Asanteman convoy.
The convoy reportedly blocked the highway at Amamfom, chanting, “There is no man in Techiman.”
This act reportedly provoked the Techiman youth, leading to the retaliatory attack on the buses.
The violent confrontation resulted in injuries, with victims receiving medical attention.
Police is yet to comment on the incident, but tensions remain high between the two communities.
