The panel of the Brong Ahafo regional house of chiefs sitting on the Berekum chieftaincy dispute has indicated they will not give their verdict on 22nd of August as they announced in their previous sitting.
The lawyers for the parties in the case filed their written addresses as far back as 25th of July 2013. The panel has thus instructed oral addresses to be presented on the 27th of August 2013 before a date for the verdict determined.
The people of Berekum have to now wait patiently till the 27th of August and hope that the panel live by their words to end this lasting dispute which has brought immense underdevelopment in Berekum.
