Buley, 55, was allegedly beaten to death with a stick over goat meat at Sehwi Paboase in the Sehwi Wiawso Municipality of the Western North region. The man was killed over goat meat.
According to reports, the deceased and one Azuley were close friends who had gone carcass hunting together. A recent dead goat given to them by a neighbor, however, caused a misunderstanding when Buley felt cheated out of his share of the meat.

According to freelancer Emmanuel Sowah, an argument erupted over the issue, which was resolved, only to be reignited the next day when Buley went to Azuley’s house for his sack.
A fight ensued, and Azuley struck Buley in the head with a club, killing him at the Sehwi Wiawso Government Hospital.

Simon Okom, the assemblyman for Paboase Electoral Area, told Emmanuel Sowah:
“They both go around looking for carcasses and splitting them.” So a man gave them a goat, and Buley felt cheated because he only got the head and some parts. When he returned home for his sack this morning, the argument raged on, and Buley struck Azuley first. So Azuley also hit him with a stick, and he passed out and died.”
Since then, his remains have been deposited at the Sehwi Wiawso Government Hospital Morgue, and the perpetrator was still at large at the time this report was filed.
