The sacred shrine is deemed to have been hosting most of the powerful deities belonging to the Asantehene since ancient days, but it was not spared as the irate youth of Adwumakasekese burnt it.
This was sparked after the police on Thursday shot three people from Adwumakasekese resulting to a death of one Agya Akwasi Wusu over a feud between a land litigation between the chiefs of Adwuamakasekese and Bomfa.
The youth of Adwmakasekese invaded the township of Bomfa apparently because of the death of their man Agya Wusu with the believe that it was the Bomfa chiefs who led the police to have attacked them which resulted in the death of their brother.
