Two dead after unknown gunmen reportedly set bus on fire in Walewale

-

Two passengers have reportedly been killed after a bus was burnt to ashes in a deadly attack in Walewale of the North East region.

Accra-based Citi News reported that the bus was travelling from Kumasi to Garu on Thursday, February 13, 2025.

Midway through the journey, they were ambushed by unknown armed men after making a stop in front of the ADB Bank in Walewale.

It is unclear what triggered the deadly attack but it has been linked to the ongoing Bawku conflict which has so far claimed the lives of over 50 people.

The latest ghastly incident follows another on February 11, 2025, where three passengers were killed, and their bus was set ablaze near Wulugu on the Bolgatanga-Tamale highway.
