“The chief informed me that information reaching him indicates that the residence of Komfo Osman has been burnt. That was yesterday in the morning. So I did organise my unit committee members to go to the place to confirm the incident.
“So upon getting there, we saw one of the buildings belonging to Osman burnt. Yes, we have officially reported the incident to the police. Though the community has returned to normal, I still believe the security services will continue monitoring the situation at Barniekrom.”
