Security has since been reinforced in the area, with more than 50 police officers and other security personnel deployed to maintain law and order following the incident.

The clash reportedly took place in front of the Gomoa Nyanyano chief’s palace, prompting the Central East Regional Police Command to intervene and restore calm in the township.

According to reports, the violence was triggered when one faction organised a float in the town. Members of the opposing faction allegedly mobilised to block the main road to prevent the procession from passing, which led to the violent clashes.

Police have launched investigations into the incident and have urged residents to remain calm and cooperate with security agencies as efforts continue to ensure peace and stability in the town.
