A religious page on Facebook, Darulhadith, which describes itself as an Islamic organization strictly based on the establishment of Sunnah and the eradication of innovation (bid'ah) has shared chilling details of some killings that happened at Bawku on Sunday, October 27, 2024.

According to the page, in the afternoon of Sunday, some gunmen in the Bawku area killed one Abee Waqas, as he was attending the funeral of his father.

The post added that the father of this man had died on Friday.

It added that having been denied access into the Bawku township due to the ensuing chieftaincy conflict, Abee Waqas and his family, together with one of his brothers who was also shot, decided to return to Bolgatanga.
