CAR DEALER MURDERS WIFE-TO-BE

-

The Police at Mamponteng in the Kwabre district of Ashanti are pursuing a 36 year old man, Emmanuel Asare Baffour for allegedly murdering his girlfriend, Ama Suzzy after which he has ran away. 

The man, who is said to be a car dealer near the Bekwai Roundabout in Kumasi, allegedly murdered the woman last Monday, wrapped the body in a cloth, locked his room and ran away without the notice of any tenant. 

The Landlord of the house at Truba popularly known as Buokrom South Africa, Richard Boakye who confirmed the incident to Ashanti Today in interview, said the Police have retrieved the body from the room and deposited it at the mortuary while investigations continue. 

According to the Land lord, suspect Asare Baffour rented a room in his house last May and later introduced Suzzy to him as his wife-to-be. They both come from Dunkwa On-Offin in the Central region. 

However, Suzzy, now deceased who is a trader comes to lodge with Asare Baffour only when she comes to Kumasi to buy goods to restock her shop in her hometown. 

The Landlord said Suzzy came back to the house last Friday and was there till Sunday when a misunderstanding ensued between her and Asare Baffour with the woman claiming that Asare Baffour is indebted to her for which she was demanding the money. 

Mr. Boakye said he last saw Suzzy on Monday but when tried to serve them with their light bill, their door was locked.

 He said yesterday in the evening while in the house, he noticed a pungent smell but mistook it for a dead rodent. 

However, upon a serious search, he realized the stench was emanating from the room of Asare Baffuor while the door to the room was still locked. 

He said when he peeped through the window, the woman was found wrapped in a piece of cloth with a bag on top of her body with spills of blood dripping through the cloth and in a state of decomposition. 

The matter was therefore reported to the Mamponteng Police who came there and upon a search in the room, found the Passport and National Health Insurance Card bearing the personal details of Asare Baffuor who had by the time ran away from the house without any traces of his movement.

THE STATE OF KUMASI'S 'INDUSTRIAL AREA

-
The once Industrial enclave of the Ashanti region within the Kumasi metropolis is fast losing its status as the nerve centre of jobs for the people.     This is due to the collapse of most of the companies in quick succession in  the last few years for various reasons. Background Industrialization was a key component of the first wholly indigenous government of Ghana led by Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah. The Ashanti region was not left out in this drive which was meant to create decent jobs for the residents, particularly the youth.  Asokwa, Ahinsan, Kaase, Atonsu and Kyirapatre were the communities that became what is known as the ‘Industrial Area’ of Ashanti from the early 60s.  The christening of this enclave as the ‘Industrial Area’ was the people’s appreciation of the numerous state and privately owned companies that were sited there.  These communities fall within present day Asokwa Constituency which is in the western part of the metropolis from the Accra d

KWAMANG SHS NEEDS URGENT HELP

New Campus of the Kwamang Presby SHS The Kwamang Presby Senior High/Technical School in the Sekyere Central district of Ashanti needs an urgent external intervention to address some of its pressing basic needs to function very well.  A visit by Ashanti Today to the school’s premises revealed that the school does not have an administrative block to administer affairs of the school for which reason the Headmistress, the Bursar and another staff are sharing one room which has been partitioned, while the Assistant Headmaster, the rest of the Accounts staff among other administrative officers are also working from an improvised classroom. Anybody who visits the Kwamang Presby Senior High Technical school for the first time will unavoidably take it for a basic school.  This is more so when it appears to be perching on the premises of the local Junior High School as its old site.  The school is wallowing in a myriad of challenges that are seriously militating against
