The escalating violence in Bawku has triggered a mass departure of both public and private sector workers, as rising insecurity continues to make the town and its surrounding areas increasingly uninhabitable.
Since the resurgence of conflict, over 300 lives have been lost, with the ripple effects pushing hundreds of essential service providers - including teachers, nurses, and other government workers - to abandon their posts and relocate to safer districts.
Many say they no longer feel safe living or working in Bawku, as fear and uncertainty grip the once-thriving municipality.
The protracted dispute between the Kusasis and Mamprusis has not only disrupted daily life but also eroded decades of progress in the town.
