Supporters of the assassinated Paramount Chief of Dagbon Traditional Area, Ya Na Yakubu Andani II have gone on rampage in Tamale, destroying property belonging to the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP). This follows alleged reports that some leading members of the NPP spearheaded the clan conflict that led to the death of their clan head.
The dusk to dawn curfew imposed in Tamale and Yendi is being defied by the people of the area, who engage in violent clashes during the night.
Calm has reportedly been restored to Yendi but people are still fleeing the town due to the tense situation. Some of the fleeing vehicles were involved in an accident, which killed at least two people and injured several others. The casualties are not yet known since some people are buried immediately they are killed.
