The Chief of Agona Kwanyako in the Central Region, Nana Ampem Darkoh, has urged for peace between Muslim and Christian youths following a recent clash in the area.

In response to the incident, Nana Ampem Darkoh and his sub-chief visited the Agona Kwanyako Mosque today to engage with the community.
During the visit, Nana Ampem Darkoh called for reconciliation and dialogue to prevent further escalation of tensions. He stressed the importance of fostering harmony and cooperation among all residents of Agona Kwanyako.
