The Assemblyman for Ahamansu and Dodi-Papase North Electoral Areas, Mr. Hussein Abdulai and Fatawu Musah, respectively, said in an interview that some of the displaced people were being registered.

Mr. Hussein, also known as Mac-Show, said he had registered 82 people at 1000hours on Sunday, January 19 with the exercise ongoing.

He appealed to Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) to come to the aid of the “refugees,” who lacked clothing, food and shelter.

Mr. Musah on the other hand, said he had registered some 13 people on Saturday, adding that “I now have more information on the displaced, so registration will continue on Sunday.”

He pleaded with NGOs and benevolent organisations to help the “refugees” who had nothing to rely on.

The humanitarian situation was occasioned in renewed violent attacks, resulting from a situation where the Akyode, Adele and Challa ethnic groups in the Nkwanta South Municipality are all claiming ownership of the Nkwanta township leading to an age-old conflict.

The Wednesday, January 15, 2025 melee claimed seven lives, with nine houses and shops set ablaze.

However, the deployment of Police cum Military detachment to the town on Friday, has calmed down the situation.

Meanwhile, the Assemblymen have appealed to President John Mahama to expedite action on the appointments of his officials to activate the running of the government at all levels.

Kadjebi shares a boundary with the Nkwanta South Municipality, and has become a safe haven for displaced residents seeking refuge from the violence.
