Motor rider allegedly stabbed to death at Akame

On Thursday evening, a motor rider named Lorlorne Kudah, believed to be in his late 20s, allegedly met a fatal stabbing at Akame in the Ketu South Municipality of Ghana's Volta Region. The gruesome incident took place near a new site at the One District, One Factory (1D1F) cassava processing factory. Winfred Kwabla Dakunya, the area's Assembly Member, disclosed to the Ghana News Agency (GNA) that the suspected perpetrator, identified as Kwame Tsali, a 30-year-old local from Lotakor, is yet to be apprehended.

Dakunya explained that a recent community member reportedly informed the police, stating that her husband was responsible for the murder. Both the suspect's father and brother confirmed that he left their home on his motorbike but could not determine the exact time of his return. The motorbike was found parked in the suspect's room following the incident. The precise details surrounding the alleged killing remain unclear, and the suspect remains at large.

Dakunya called for Akame residents and those from neighboring communities to remain calm and allow the police to carry out a thorough investigation. He further urged anyone with pertinent information that may aid in locating the suspect to cooperate with the authorities. The police have commenced their investigation following the recovery of the victim's body for autopsy.
