Police in Ghana's Upper West Region stopped armed robbers from attacking travelers on the Wa-Nyoli Road early on Thursday, November 6, 2025. Four gunmen ambushed two minivans around 2:00 a.m. near Kongolmo and Tanina, firing shots and forcing the vehicles off the highway toward dense brush. A patrol unit conducting routine highway monitoring heard the gunfire and rushed to the location, where the assailants opened fire on officers. Police returned shots with measured force, driving the criminals into surrounding vegetation without any injuries reported.

Deputy Commissioner of Police Francis Yiribaare praised the responding officers for their quick action and professional handling of the dangerous situation. The regional command has increased nighttime patrols and intelligence operations on robbery-prone routes following public safety concerns. Authorities urged drivers to follow escort protocols when traveling during vulnerable hours and asked residents to report suspicious behavior to security agencies.
