The Real Truth Behind Young Military Personnel, Imoro’s Death | READ IT HERE

 

A Facebook user reveals the real reason for the terrible death of Imoro, a young soldier. 

Sherif Imoro, age 21, was killed in Taifa, an Ashaiman suburb. He was a soldier with the 3rd Battalion Infantry in Sunyani. 

According to a Facebook user named Fidelis Yussif Bogobiri, the young man's death was not merely the result of a typical mob attack but rather "love gone wrong," which led to his passing.

He described the entire incident in this manner;

“The guy went to visit his girlfriend who is double dating and the soldier has been coming over to spend nights with her in her room and some people around gave the information to the other guy who ambushed the soldier at dawn and stabbed him from behind on his neck to death leaving him with his laptop and phones in his bag lying down in a pool of blood.”

Following the death of a young soldier in the area, military personnel have been brutalizing Ashaiman civilians in a rage. 

According to the information that has been released, the army employee was being attacked by a gang while he was traveling home. 

According to reports, the soldier requested permission from the army to return home after feeling ill. 

Some versions claim that these rioters stabbed him to death rather than beating him to death. The unexpected incident happened when the young soldier was traveling to see her mother. 

Whatever the case, this significantly angered the military personnel, who moved into the home of their late father to exact revenge and beat up residents for such a terrible tragedy.

"The military are hitting people as they go from house to house. When they see you, they tell you to enter after receiving a warning. And it appears like we are currently under curfew," the investigator stated.

“66TH Independence Day to be held at Adaklu District and not the Regional Capital, Ho ” - Former TESCON-UEW Co-ordinator Clarifies Rumors | READ MORE HERE

 

Kadey Sylvester Worlanyo, a former TESCON-UEW Co-ordinator, answers rumors about the location of Ghana's 66th Independence Day celebration. 

The event is reportedly scheduled to take place in the Volta Region's capital, Ho, but will actually take place in the district of Adaklu, which is located inside the region. 

The Former Coordinator clarified the information as follows;

Adaklu District Assembly was established in the year 2012 by a Legislative Instrument (L.I) 2085 of 2012 and was carved out of Adaklu-Anyibge District now Agotime-Ziofe District 

It has Adaklu-Waya as it’s Administrative capital which is geographically positioned at the center of the district.

The Adaklu District was inaugurated on 28th June 2012 as a course of promoting decentralization and bringing development to the doorstep of the people.

The district covers a total land Area of 810 sq.km. This large land area is an asset to people of Adaklu and the central point for establishing   some new Regional facilities of the Volta Region. The evidence to this is that, the Volta Regional Airport and the newly built Regional Youth Recourse Centre are all located in Adaklu District.

 The most dominant economic activity in the District is agriculture which employs about 78 percent of the labour force. The District is well known in the Region for the production of cereals and legumes such as maize, cowpea, groundnut, rice and tubers including cassava, sweet potatoes and vegetables (i.e. tomatoes, garden eggs, pepper, okro, etc).Livestock rearing plays an important role in the lives of the people as the District is endowed with large livestock populations of cattle, sheep, goats, poultry among others.

The people of Adaklu celebrate the Glidzi festival every January to remember the death of their ancestors during their escape from Nortsie, their ancestral home.

On behalf of the people of Adaklu, I will like to express my sincere appreciation to the president of the Republic of Ghana, H.E Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo Addo for granting us the opportunity to host this year’s 66th Independence Anniversary celebration at the Adaklu District of the Volta Region. 

In addition, I will like to advice all media houses to be professional in their reportage. Adaklu in the Volta  Region is the venue where the 66th independence’s Day will be held and not Ho. For the sake of appropriate direction and of accurate record keeping, due diligence must be installed by the media stations. 

Because it’s has come to my notice that, some media houses reported that the 66th Independence Day is taking place in the regional capital. I see such reportage as inappropriate and hence misleading and therefore an attempt to sideline the fortunes and aspirations of Adaklu District.

My profound gratitude goes to the Volta Regional Minister Hon. Dr. Archibald Letsa and the Former District Chief Executive Hon. Phanuel Kadey Donkor for their tireless contributions in making Adaklu District one of the fastest growing Assemblies in the region.

Welcome to Adaklu, enjoy your stay....
