The Pampaso Sub-Traditional Council has placed curses on public officials. This includes the Kumasi Mayor, Richard Ofori Agyemang Boadi. The Ashanti Regional Police Commander, DCOP Arthur Osei Akoto, and the Interior Minister, Muntaka Mohammed Mubarak, were also cursed.
The council stated these curses are over a land dispute. They claim the land belongs to the Pampaso Stool. The officials are accused of taking this land.
The specific details of the land and the alleged takeover were not fully disclosed by the council. The invocation of curses is a traditional method used to seek justice or retribution.
This action highlights a significant conflict between traditional authorities and local government over land ownership and control in Kumasi.
The curses are meant to bring misfortune upon those involved in the alleged land seizure. The council hopes this will lead to the return of the land.
Further details on the land dispute are expected to emerge as the situation develops. The involved officials have not yet responded to the curses.
