Dr. Addo Kufuor, during an assessment tour of the Gushegu and Tamale ordered the transfer of the suspects to Accra for prosecution.
Whilst in Gushiegu, the Interior Minister pledged that the government would not spare anyone found culpable of breaching the peace.

He appealed to the people to co-operate with the security personnel keeping the peace in the area..
