Abdul Nasir Yussif and, Muntala Mohammed Siraji were killed and four others injured after a combined team of Police and Military personal shot into protesters during the burial of Kaaka.
The youth of Ejura were protesting the death of Ibrahim Mohammed also known as Macho Kaaka, who was reportedly attacked on the dawn of June 27 and later died on Monday afternoon June 28, 2021.
President Nana Akufo-Addo, in July 2021 directed the Interior Minister Ambrose Dery to establish a committee of inquiry to conduct a public inquiry into the killing of two persons and injuries to four others by the soldiers during the protest.
The report of the three-member ministerial committee have since been published by the government.
Among other things, the committee recommended the removal of the MCE for the area, who had already pulled out of the race for a new MCE, and compensation for the affected families and victims.
