The Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II is calling for the dismissal of Brong Ahafo regional minister and the regional police commander.
He accuses the two of being bias and unprofessional in their conduct culminating in needless clashes within the region.
The Brong Ahafo region has been in the news for the wrong reasons following clashes between two chiefs- the Tuobodom chief and that of Techiman.
The clashes were sparked by the arrest of the chief of Tuobodon Nana Baffuor Asare by bodyguards of the chief of Techiman, Oseadeayo Akumfi Ameyaw who later handed him over to the police.
Three people were said to have died whilst two others sustained serious injuries.
The two chiefs have been engaged in a protracted turf war over whether the Tuobodom chief owes allegiance to the Asantehene or the Techiman chief.
After an emergency meeting of the Asanteman council, the Asantehene blamed Kwodwo Nyamekye Marfo, the Brong Ahafo regional minister as well as DCOP Seth Oteng for not being circumspect in their conduct and accused them of taking sides in the matter.
He called on the Mills government to declare its stance on the matter.
