Regional News of Friday, 3 November 2017Source: classfmonline.comYilo Krobo Traditional Council bans Kloyosikplemi festivalThe people of Yilo Krobo have been stopped from celebrating Kloyosikplemi festival this yearThe Yilo Krobo Traditional Council and the Ologo Clan have placed a ban on this year’s celebration of the Kloyosikplemi festival over security concerns. The Kloyosikplemi, which means “descending the Krobo mountain”, is an annual festival celebrated in November every year. However, a protracted chieftaincy dispute in Yilo Krobo is threatening peace and security in the area, compelling the authorities to suspend celebrations. If the Traditional Council is celebrating and he is also celebrating, it will bring a clash. So, to celebrate the festival without going out is a non-starter, so we asked them to put a total ban on it”.
