Armed military personnel moved in on Friday, April 5, 2025, to restore calm at Yamfo in the Tano North Municipality of the Ahafo Region.
However, the security operatives were left with no other option than to fire intermittent warning shots to disperse the irate youth who had besieged the Yamfo police station.
The uproar erupted in the mining town when the angry youth besieged the police station and attempted to set the station ablaze, but the timely arrival of the military saved the situation.
During a visit to the town around 1600 hours, the Ghana News Agency (GNA) noticed that calm had returned to the town, and there were still some military personnel around.
