The Court of Appeal in Accra, presided over by Justice Anthony Oppong, has overturned the conviction of Numo Moses Tettey-Gah, Numo Hunu Bafloe, Nene Tettey Limo III, and Gbordzor Abayateye, members of the Oger-We wing of the Lomobiawe clan of Ada.
The court found that the initial conviction by the Tema High Court was erroneous, leading to a miscarriage of justice.
Consequently, the appeal court set aside the fines imposed on them and acquitted them of all contempt charges.
The case stemmed from a long-standing dispute over the installation of a Wetsoyi (Clan Head) for the Lomobiawe clan, which arose following the death of Nene Limo III in 2015.
