The Ghana Police Service has arrested four individuals suspected to be involved in the fatal shooting of a mobile money (MoMo) vendor at Gbagblakope, near the Diamond Cement factory in Aflao in the Volta Region.
A statement released by the Volta Regional Police Command on May 12, 2025, revealed that the arrests were made during a targeted intelligence-led operation on May 10.
The operation was carried out by a joint team from the Regional Police Intelligence Department (RPID), the SWAT Unit, the Operation Motherland Taskforce, and a local community watch group known as ‘ACTION NOW’.
The suspects — Michael Sewornu, 34; Korku Agboada, 43; Atsu Agbagla, 36; and Utsuku Onyeso, 22, a Nigerian national — are currently in custody and assisting police with further investigations.
The incident occurred on April 28, 2025, at about 6:15 p.m., when a group of five armed men reportedly attacked and shot Christopher Ahordo, a mobile money vendor, during a robbery. The attackers fled the scene with a bag believed to contain cash.
