The supreme leader of Lower Dixcove was seriously injured in the back after the attack.
Upper Dixcove chief Obrempong Hima-Dekyi has denied allegations that he ordered Sunday night's attack on Lower Dixcove chief Nana Akwasi Agyemang.
He also refuted information that he was fleeing after the incident.
"This is never true. On the run for what? What offense did I commit? The police have my number, "Obrempong Hima-Dekyi told Citi News.
He added that attempts to link him to the attack were "quite mischievous and absurd, adding that he" will not be seated for such things to happen ".
"My hands are clean in this case. I have nothing to do with it. "
Despite his denials, Hima-Dekyi announced his intention to report to the Sekondi Police Command in the presence of his lawyer.
Assailants broke into the Lower Dixcove Chief's Palace after destroying his main door with explosives.
He was then taken with some of his elders to an unknown place where they were beaten.
Nana Akwasi Agyemang is currently hospitalized at Sekondi's Effia-Nkwanta Hospital, wounded at the blade of a knife.
The tensions are thought to be a disagreement between the supreme chiefs of Lower Dixcove and Upper Dixcove on the borderline between the two priorities in Ahanta West District, in the western region.
Nana Akwasi Agyemang is a former acting president of the House of Chiefs of the Western Region.
The command of the West Regional Police has opened an investigation into the incident
