Man stabbed to death:
What began as a mere exchange of words between
two friends has cost the life of a 21-year-old
Emmanuel Ato Simpson at Effia in the Effia Kwesiminstim
Municipal of the Western Region.
The deceased, according to an eyewitness, was stabbed
many times and thrown into a a main drain at about 10pm on Saturday.
Man stabbed to death:
He said the quarrel happened after severe warnings to the
deceased and his friends to stop smoking marijuana at the
back of the assailant’s house but they were adamant.
A fight then ensued between them that night where the
deceased threatened his accuser with a knife.
The duo, the eye witness said, fell into the open gutter
where his assailant had an upper hand over him.
He said Ato was later taken to the hospital where
he was pronounced dead on arrival.
Mena Esiah, a fetish priestess of the Effia community
says she’s worried about the bad behaviour of young people
in the community and prayed that city authorities will
engage them in profitable ventures.
“Because they are not working and are always idle they
engage themselves in so many social vices. The government
must come to their aid in getting the youth something to do.”
The Effia Police confirmed the incident and said investigations
have commenced into the matter to bring the perpetrators to book.
