The lifeless body of a young Okada rider named Kwame Fosu has been found in a bush in Agona Afransi, in the Gomoa Central district of the Central Region.
According to eyewitnesses, the victim was hired by two unknown individuals to transport them to a destination. However, upon reaching a secluded spot, the rider was allegedly attacked and beheaded by the two individuals, who were joined by three other assailants already waiting in the bush.
The Police arrested three suspects on December 11 in connection with the murder, while two others are currently on the run.
Kwame Fosu the 17-year-old rider was an SHS dropout from the Kwanyako Senior High School in order to fend for himself and family. The deceased left behind a one-year-old daughter and her mother.
