The suspects, identified as Alhaji Kassim Mohammed, Stephen Cobbinah (also known as Bonjour), and Joseph Mensah (also known as Kofi Kokor), allegedly armed themselves with offensive weapons and caused chaos at the event, which resulted in one person being injured. The disruption led to a violent outbreak at the ceremony.
