“Let justice be administered as speedily as practicable to still the waters,” he said. “That may be an appeasement of some sort at least,” he added.
The late regional chairman was acid-attacked near his residence last Wednesday and died subsequently at the Bolgatanga Regional Hospital. He was buried last Saturday.

The legislator said the people are calling for justice and asked that justice is delivered speedily to forestall any such acts. He prayed to the good Lord to “grant Mahama a peaceful rest.”
