A tragic incident unfolded at Brewankor, a farming community in the Nkwanta South Municipality of the Oti Region, where one person was fatally shot on a farm, and another in critical condition.

The victim, 25-year-old Kwabena Boame, lost his life while participating in cassava harvesting alongside three others.

Currently, the injured individual is undergoing treatment at Nkwanta St. Joseph Catholic Hospital.

The motive behind the shooting remains unclear, raising questions about its potential connection to the ongoing conflict in the area.

Despite assurances from local chiefs in Adele, Akyode, and Challa pledging to foster peace after recent clashes, residents continue to grapple with fear.

In response to the tragic incident resulting in the farmer's death, authorities have taken two individuals into custody.
