Two suspects have been arrested by the Agona Kwanyarko Police and handed over to the Agona Swedru Divisional Police Command for killing an okada rider after hiring him at Agona Kwanyarko in the Agona East District of the Central Region.

The unfortunate incident happened at Agona Okoto-Kwaa near Agona Kwanyarko in the Agona East District of the Central Region.

A police source says that on Sunday, the main suspects hired the okada rider from Agona Kwanyarko to Agona Okoto-Kwaa community, and upon reaching a section of the road, the suspect stopped the driver, pulled out a knife, and demanded the motor key.

Sources say the deceased failed to give him the motor key and, in the process, stabbed the okada rider’s eye to the unconscious.

The victim was rushed to Agona Swedru Government Hospital and died at the hospital.

The angry okada riders stormed Agona Swedru Divisional Police Command and demanded the release of the suspects and lynch them.

In an interview with Kasapa News, Yaw Boagyan, one of the okada riders, Joseph Mensah, revealed that the suspect stabbed the rider known as Atta Kakra in the eye before dying.

He, the suspect, managed to take the motor away.

Joseph Mensah said that the suspect came to the other community for another operation, leading to his arrest and his counterpart.
