The Denkyira-Boasi town in the Central region has become a ghost town following the ghastly lynching of an army officer there by residents.
Nhyira FM’s Ohemeng Tawiah who is currently in the town reports that most of the young people have fled because they suspect that there will be retaliatory attacks from the military.
The town, he noted now is more or less a ghost town adding that businesses that were going on have all ceased and people are not working.
“As I’m speaking with you now, the town is now a ghost town. Children, mothers, fathers have all fled the town for fear of being attacked,” he said on Adom FM’s Midday News.
His comment comes a day after a military officer was lynched in the Central regional town of Denkyira-Boasi.
Captain Maxwell Mahama of the 5 BN met his untimely death when he went on his early morning jog on Monday.
He was allegedly stoned and burnt by the youth of the area who mistook him for an armed robber.
