Three suspects, Philip Dzifa Kofi Tefe, Sarah Osei Adams, and Josiah Obodai, appeared before the Teshie District Court in connection with the kidnapping and murder of mobile phone dealer Nana Yaw Kyere, also known as Dinero. The court adjourned the case until October 16, 2026. Kyere went missing on September 22, 2026, after leaving his home in Kokomlemle, Accra, on September 19, in his Honda Civic.
Police believe he was lured to Philip Tefe's residence in Teshie Agbleza by Sarah Osei Adams, where he was allegedly attacked and killed. Tefe and Osei Adams have confessed to their involvement, with Tefe admitting to striking Kyere with a metallic object. Kyere's body was found partially burnt near a motorway on September 20, and his iPhone 12 was recovered, allegedly sold by Tefe for GH¢100 to Sunday Omeje, who was cautioned and detained.
Josiah Obodai was arrested for allegedly disposing of the body, and his father's Kia Morning vehicle, believed to have been used in transporting the body, was impounded by the police. The suspects remain in police custody while authorities investigate the full circumstances of Kyere's death and identify any other individuals involved.
