His murder comes months after his picture was brandished on TV by a Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong which sought to incite the public against the deceased.

Mr Affail Monney has, however, charged President Akufo-Addo to ensure that the perpetrators of the heinous crime are brought to book.
