Accra (Greater Accra) – The Chiefs and people of Mumford in the Central Region on Tuesday denied ever planning and attempting to attack the Apam Township, their neighbours on Monday 28 October, 2002.
They described the alleged attack that was allegedly made public by Nana Edu Effrim, the tenth, Chief of Apam, as “totally false, mischievous and calculated to draw the people of Mumford into an unproductive conflict.”
In a release issued by Mr Charles Impraim, General Secretary, Mumford Development Association (MUMDA), the Chiefs and people of Mumford described themselves peace loving, law abiding and hard working.
It said the people are more concerned about developmental projects that would improve the standard of living of the people.
The release said “this is the second time that the Chief of Apam has mobilized his people for war against Mumford on the basis of unfounded allegations.” The release urged the District Security Council (DISEC) to investigate the latest incident thoroughly and bring any culprit to book.
