Nana Adwoa Gyemfua, the Kwahuhemaa, has been abducted following a raid at the Palace of the Paramount Chief of the Kwahu Traditional Council at Abene.

Reports suggest the attack occurred on Monday, November 17, 25, around 4 a.m.

According to the information gathered, Armed men, reportedly dressed in police uniforms, claiming to be from the National Security, raided the Palace of the Paramount Chief of the Kwahu Traditional Council at Abene.

The official Toyota Land Cruiser of the Kwahuhene was taken during the raid.

Tracking information from the Toyota Land Cruiser revealed was en route to Accra.

The Nkawkaw and Kwahu Divisional Police Commands have said they had no knowledge of any operations conducted by the personnel who identified themselves as national security agents.

Meanwhile, Authorities are yet to provide official statements; however, investigations are underway into the attack and abduction.

In related news, the Ghana Police Service has announced the arrest of four suspects for the murder of Nana Owusu Korkor, the destooled Akwamuhene of Tanoso in the Bono East Region.

According to the Police statement, the suspects were arrested between Monday, November 10, and Tuesday, November 11, 2025.

The suspects have been identified as Issifu Addae (alias Akwasi Addae), aged 48, Stephen Gyamfi, aged 55, Augustine Arhinful, aged 42, and Martha Mansah, aged 65.

The deceased had reportedly been destooled but contested the decision, leading to disputes.

According to police sources, all four suspects have denied any involvement in the killing during interrogation but are in custody, assisting investigations, while police pursue four others linked to the case.

The findings suggest the late destooled chief had been accused of misappropriating five gold bars belonging to the family, and also illegally selling family land.

The suspects Issifu Addae, Stephen Gyamfi, Sampson, and Fosu allegedly visited the disputed land to stop the developer from continuing work and threatened to teach the deceased a lesson.

The Police Investigators further suspect the newly installed Akwamuhene, Nana Akyeampong Duodu, might have masterminded the murder.

Nana Akyeampong Duodu is said to have travelled to the United States at the time of the murder to establish an alibi.
