The arrival of the supposed
Paramount chief of Aflao Traditional Area, Togbui Afla contrary to assurance
from police to prevent his outdooring has generated agitations from the youth
who accuse the police of betrayal of their trust.
The youth claim they were
disappointed in the police for failing to prevent the supposed paramount chief from entering the traditional area.
The irate youth were seen barricading some of the major roads and burning lorry
tyres amidst chanting of war songs.
Security agencies from the regional command quickly rushed to the scene
to calm tempers. Meanwhile security was
intensified at the two palaces as the new chief is being kept at the police
custody in order manage the tension.
A visit to the place of the
supposed new paramount chief’s camp revealed their readiness to welcome his
paramountcy. The mood at the camp of the incumbent chief Togbui Amenya Fiti on
the other hand seems to be that of defensive as Petit Haligah the Public
Relations Officer of Togbui Fiti V has threatened to resist any attempt to
usurp the powers of Togbui Fiti.
