John Peter Amewu
In a shocking incident on March 5, 2025, the private residence of former Hohoe Member of Parliament, John Peter Amewu, was reportedly stormed by unidentified gunmen. This alarming event has raised serious concerns about safety and security in the area.
According to multiple reports, the assailants fired warning shots as they entered Amewu’s home. They claimed to be acting on “orders from above,” asserting that Amewu was not legitimately elected during the 2020 parliamentary elections. This statement adds a layer of political tension to an already volatile situation.
Fortunately, Amewu was not at home at the time of the invasion. However, the confrontation between the gunmen and local residents escalated quickly. The community expressed their outrage and fear, highlighting the rising insecurity in the region.
Local authorities have been alerted, and the police are investigating the incident. This breach of safety underscores the need for increased security measures and a reassessment of political tensions that may lead to such violent actions.
The invasion of Peter Amewu’s residence is not just an attack on one individual; it reflects broader issues within Ghana’s political landscape. As the community grapples with these unsettling events, the focus must shift toward ensuring the safety of all citizens and addressing the underlying political grievances that fuel such hostility.
