According to the party executive, it is sadder that the individuals behind the act were persons employed by the late Navrongo Member of Parliament.

“I find it difficult to understand why. The person employed you to work at his farm, and the person just lost his life less than one month in a very sad manner, the person has not been laid to rest and you have that heart to go back to that same farm to steal. It is so unexplainable I don’t even know what came over them,” he lamented.
