The Member of Parliament for Tempane, Lydia Lamisi Akanvariba, has condemned the fatal shooting of two officers of the Ghana Immigration Service at Nagani and a subsequent military operation in Basyonde, both in the Upper East Region, describing the incidents as deeply troubling and unacceptable.
In a statement issued on Monday, November 3, 2025, the MP expressed sorrow over the loss of one officer and extended condolences to the bereaved family, the injured officer, and the entire Ghana Immigration Service.
“It is with deep sorrow and grave concern that I address two unfortunate and deeply troubling incidents that have occurred in Tempane Constituency over the past 24 hours,” she stated.
“Violence of this nature is reprehensible, unacceptable, and a direct affront to the rule of law.”
Madam Akanvariba also condemned the actions of some military personnel who allegedly invaded Basyonde following the Nagani shooting, reportedly assaulting residents and leaving several people injured.
She said the development had created fear and insecurity among her constituents.
