Six persons shot in scuffle over Songor salt project

At least six persons have sustained several gunshot wounds in the Toflokpo and Salom communities in Ada, Greater Accra Region, for allegedly preventing Electrochem Ghana Limited from operating there.

 

The incident occurred on Friday, 5 February 2021.

 

Sources in the community indicate that a group of surveyors who had come from Accra on Thursday to work on portions of land leased to the company by the Government of Ghana, were whisked away by the local youth.

The company is alleged to have transported land guards from Accra to ward off the indigenes from trespassing.

 

In the process, six persons sustained gunshot wounds.

 

The victims are currently receiving treatment at the Ada Hospital.
