The Gbi Traditional Council has warned Muslim youth to return stolen regalia from the palace or they will advice themselves.
The council gave this ultimatum during a meeting with the GOC Southern Command, Brigadier General Martin Ahiaglo.
The Commander has been meeting with feuding factions- Muslims and indigenes of Hohoe- in an attempt to calm nerves and to restore order following days of clashes which have left two people dead and properties destroyed.
The two groups have been engaged in series of reprisal attack culminating in a dawn-to-dusk curfew being imposed on the Hohoe Municipality.
Two houses were torched, Wednesday dawn despite the curfew; raising concerns the clashes are far from over.
Moslems are said to be running away from the area for fear of being attacked.
Peace brokers including the National Chief Imam, Sheik Nuhu Sharabutu as well as Brigadier Gen. Ahiaglo have been meeting the factions to attempt a peaceful resolution of the matter.
Joy News Volta Region correspondent Agbeko Ben Coffie who is part of the emissaries reported the Gbi Traditional Council is unhappy with the attack on their palace.
Apart from the destruction on the Palace the Council is accusing the Muslim Youth of stealing regalia from the Palace.
Tobgui Keh of Gbi Wegbe said the Muslim youth have until Friday to return the stolen regalia or the Council will advise themselves.
He is also cautioning the police against what he said was the continuous attacks and harassment of the indigenes or they will be forced to defend themselves.
Agbeko Ben Coffie reported of angry women clad in red and in firm support of the Council's position.
