The chiefs and elders of Anum Apapam in the Suhum-Kraboa Coaltar district, have given Kwamla Adjololo, a fetish priest, a one month ultimatum to leave the town or face the wrath of the people.
Kwadwo Aboagye, Asafoatse of the town, said that ever since Adjololo came to reside in the town, the chiefs and elders had received many reports from the people about his alleged kidnapping of school children and flirting with people's wives.
Asafoatse Aboagye told the Ghana News Agency that the decision was taken after an emergency meeting of 16 local chiefs, elders, a cross section of the community and some religious leaders at Anum Apapam last weekend.
This was after he had failed to honour numerous invitations to respond to the allegations.
He explained that Adjololo used to reside at Akorado, near Suhum, but was expelled by the community for indulging in social vices like kidnapping of school children, amorous relations with people's wives and "Sakawa".
He then came to reside at Anum Apapam and started practising as an herbal doctor, but "his continued stay in the town posed a threat to the community, especially children and married women," Asafoatse Aboagye said.
The Asafoatse said that on February 9, a brother of Adjololo allegedly raped a married woman and the case was reported to the chief and elders of the town.
Both Adjololo and his brother were summoned before the chiefs and elders, but they refused to attend the summons and rather rained insults on them.
That, he said, developed into misunderstanding between the youth on one side and Adjololo and his brother on the other, which resulted in a free-for-all fight but the police intervened to bring the situation under control.
