Gyaasehene of Gomoa Akraman, Nana Ahor Egyiri popularly know as Osibo has allegedly been killed by some unidentified men at his home in Gomoa Akraman in the Central Region.
Sources close to the incident told Citi News that a group of men attacked the chief in the early hours of Sunday but were however not sure if his death was orchestrated by the same attackers.
Joseph Ahor Kpessah, a younger brother to the deceased said he heard of his brother’s death through a friend and quickly rushed to the scene only to find him in a pool of blood.
“When my friend called me, I rushed to the scene and found my brother lying in a pool of blood half naked and I also saw some stones around him with blood around it so I think they used the stone to hit him,” Joe Kpassah explained.
He said cars belonging to his brother were also damaged by the unknown assailants, adding that his fence wall was all destroyed.
“When I got to his house I saw his cars and fence wall all broken but I think this act was not committed by an individual but a group of individuals,” he said.
According to Joe Kpessah, although the perpetrators of the crime have not been arrested yet, he is hopeful that the police will help apprehend the culprits soon.
“I am hoping the Kasoa Divisional Police Command will help arrest these individuals who killed my brother,” Joe Kpessah said.
