Recent reports have raised significant concern regarding an alleged attack on the convoy of Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II in Techiman. However, the Manhyia Palace has clarified that these claims are false.
The palace has refuted viral videos and social media posts claiming an attack on Otumfuo’s convoy, advising the public to ignore such false information..
Despite these clarifications, conflicting reports have emerged. Some sources indicate that tensions flared between the youth of Techiman and Nkoranza, leading to an altercation that resulted in injuries to several individuals, including a child.
This incident reportedly occurred as the convoy returned from a funeral in Nkoranza, with the attack allegedly being a retaliation for earlier provocations.
Authorities expect to intervene to prevent further escalation as the situation remains tense. We urge the community to maintain composure while we await official statements from the police and other relevant organizations.
