Armed men stormed into Pusiga MP Hajia Laadi Ayii Ayamba's private home around noon Thursday, firing guns throughout the property. They damaged doors plus windows before burning a mattress plus a bed inside a summer hut where security guards normally stay. Nobody suffered injuries during the attack. Security sources learned about another failed attack on Bawku Central MP Mahama Ayariga's residence nearby. Police haven't identified who did this or why they targeted these politicians.

The MP's house reportedly housed several police officers working in the area. Security officials linked these incidents to Wednesday's violent clashes between police forces plus angry youth from one faction in the long-running Bawku chieftaincy fight. That earlier conflict killed civilian Fuseini Iddrisu plus resulted in burned police barracks, a destroyed police vehicle, plus three officers losing their homes, including Assistant Commissioner Adamu Seidu. Gunmen shot a police officer plus an immigration officer during the previous day's violence.

Tensions keep building across the region as security agencies work hard to maintain peace. Police asked all fighting groups to leave security forces out of their disputes. They reminded everyone that officers came to protect people and property instead of taking sides in local chieftaincy matters. The entire area remains under heavy security as authorities try to control the situation before more violence happens.
