Government has warned it would not tolerate any breach of public peace by factions in chieftaincy disputes around the country.
On Thursday yet another chieftaincy clashes in Teshie here in Accra, claimed one life whilst several people sustained injuries.
In a statement the Chieftaincy Ministry said government expects all those engaged in chieftaincy disputes to follow the laid down procedures for settling such disputes.
Chieftaincy Minister Dr. Henry Seidu Daannaa told Joy News those in dispute should go to court and not take the law into their own hands.
“As a matter of law government cannot go in and say this person is a chief or this person is not. What we can do is to facilitate and ensure that this structure works.
“And so we expect that all royal stakeholders in the chieftaincy should go by the structures and those who are not happy with the decisions of these structures can appeal to the courts.
“They cannot operate outside the law,” he warned.
