The linguist of Assin Andoe, Nana Yaw Oteng, told journalists that Atta had slept with his daughters for years, but they were scared to die as their father threatened them, so they remained quiet about the sacrilegious affair.

Well, incest is a crime in Ghana punishable by law, so although the traditional authorities have done their ritual cleansing, they have reported the matter to the Assin South Police for investigation and prosecution.
Meanwhile, the identities of the victims of the incestuous act have been concealed to ostensibly avoid stigmatization and bullying.
