Credible information reaching African Eye Report says two soldiers have been hospitalised at the Tamale Teaching Hospital following the explosion of gun powder they were carrying in their vehicles.
The Public Relations Officer of the Northern Region Police, ASP Ebenezer Tetteh said one other soldier had been discharged.
The gun power was seized from a group of musketeers who were firing at a funeral over the weekend at Yendi in the Northern Region of Ghana. There is a ban on the use of firearms and explosives.
“Unfortunately on their way to their base, the gun powder exploded”, the PRO explained.
The Police are yet to establish the circumstances that led to the explosion. ASP Ebenezer Tetteh said the musketeers would also be arrested.
