The quick intervention of a combined team of police and military personnel this morning, averted a possible clash between supporters of two rival chieftaincy factions at Buipe in the Northern Region, where Vice President John Mahama is visiting.
Early Saturday morning confusion broke out in Buipe as Mr Mahama made his way to the town to cut the sod for a sheanut plant.
Two chieftaincy factions have for months been contesting who has the legitimacy to be the Buipe Wura.
Last night the Yarfra faction issued a statement demanding the Vice President to pay courtesy calls on the leaders of both factions, or face the subsequent security problems.
Details soon.
