Tragedy struck in Abrewankor, a suburb of the Nkwanta South Municipality in the Oti Region, as a 21-year-old man was shot dead on his farm.
The deceased, identified as Kwabena Boame, was shot while harvesting cassava on his farm located near Odomi around 0800 hours on Saturday, January 27.
The police have deposited the body at the morgue of the Nkwanta South Municipal hospital, pending further investigation to bring the culprit to book. The Municipal Chief Executive, Mr Bright K. Lenwah, confirmed the sad news to the Ghana News Agency and described the situation as worrying, negatively affecting the image of the Municipality.
There are speculations among residents that the killings are linked to the recent ethnic conflict between the three tribes, Akyode, Adele, and the Challas, in the Nkwanta South Municipality.
