President Akufo-Addo visiting the Lower Dixcove Chief at the hospital<\/strong><\/p>\n

The
\nPresident, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has condemned in no uncertain terms the
\nbrutality meted out to the Paramount Chief of Lower Dixcove, Nana Kwesi Agyeman
\nIX, by some assailants last Monday dawn.<\/p>\n

The
\nPresident, who was in the Western Region on a two-day working visit, went to
\nthe Effia-Nkwanta Hospital in Sekondi, where the victim is receiving treatment, to visit him and wish him well.<\/p>\n

He
\nlater condemned the act when he addressed the chiefs and people of Axim in the
\nregion. <\/p>\n

The
\nPresident was also scheduled to visit Lower Dixcove Traditional Area to cut sod
\nfor the construction of a landing site as part of his visit but the programme
\nhad to be cancelled because of the incident.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat
\nhappened at Lower Dixcove should not be entertained. We call on all stakeholders
\nto ensure peace prevails in the area,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n

He
\nthen called on the security agencies to look for the perpetrators and bring
\nthem to book.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile,
\nthe Western Regional House of Chiefs has called on the government to set up a
\ncommittee to investigate the matter.<\/p>\n

The
\nActing President of the House, Awulae Amihere Kpanyili III, indicated that the
\nHouse believes the committee could bring some finality to the problem.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe
\nact was a wicked one. It is a wicked act. Nobody dare touch a Ghanaian, let
\nalone using machete and try to harm anybody,\u201d he pointed out.<\/p>\n

He
\nalso urged the police to expedite investigations and fish out the perpetuators
\nof such a heinous crime.<\/p>\n

It
\nwould be recalled that Nana Kwesi Agyeman was abducted by aides of rival Upper
\nDixcove Chief, Nana Hema Dekyi, over boundaries dispute.<\/p>\n

The captors were said to have used dynamite to break the main gate and entered Nana Agyeman\u2019s palace and took him and four others to the palace of the chief of Upper Dixcove, where they were subjected to severe beatings.<\/p>\n
