A clash on Thursday erupted between personnel from the Counter Terrorism Unit of the Ghana Police Service and residents of Ada, Magazine, Aboabo, Wawase, and Nkurakan.
The standoff was on the back of a blockade the residents mounted on the Koforidua-Nkurankan road during a protest.
The residents from the Yilo Krobo and the New Juaben South constituencies took to the streets to over the delay in the completion of the Koforidua-Nkurakan main road.
Clad in red and black attire, they blocked the roads with tyres, logs, wooden boxes, among others, causing traffic which left commuters stranded.
They wielded placards some of whose inscriptions read; What have we done wrong, President Nana Addo we beg you, among others.
