The police have detained a suspect named Yandeh Joof, which is a significant development in the case of the tragic death of Bennet Adomah Agyekum, the owner of the renowned restaurant Kikibees.
It is assumed that Joof was close to the late Mr. Agyekum, possibly even dating him.
When Mr. Agyekum was discovered on Sunday, October 8 at a home in Madina, lying in a pool of blood, the circumstances surrounding his death came to light.
He was immediately taken to a hospital for immediate care. Sadly, when he got to the hospital, he was already dead.
An autopsy will be performed in order to shed more light on the incident, and the deceased’s body has been preserved by being placed in the morgue of the Police Hospital.
In parallel, a thorough investigation into the incident is being conducted, and Joof is assisting the authorities.
Just hours before the tragic incident, Mr. Agyekum’s final social media post showed him dancing joyfully to a Stonebwoy song.
