A 36-year-old mobile money (MoMo) agent, Christian Nana Amponsah, popularly known as Chapter 1 in Kasoa, has been found dead in a guest house in the Awutu Senya East Municipality of the Central Region, in a suspected murder case.

The circumstances surrounding his death remain unclear, as police investigate the incident to establish what happened and identify those responsible.

According to information gathered by Oyerepa News, Amponsah left his mobile money shop on Saturday afternoon in the company of a woman described by sources as a slim Nigerian national.

He reportedly told people around him that he would return shortly. However, he failed to return, and his whereabouts remained unknown until news of his death emerged.

On Sunday, police reportedly received information that a lifeless body had been discovered in a guest house in Kasoa.

Officers who responded to the report allegedly found multiple knife wounds on the deceased’s body. A piece of cloth was also reportedly found covering his mouth.

About three knives were said to have been retrieved from the scene as part of preliminary investigations.

Sources further indicated that the deceased’s mobile phones were missing, while money was suspected to have been taken. However, the circumstances surrounding the alleged theft have not been officially established.

The woman who reportedly accompanied Amponsah to the guest house has also come under suspicion in preliminary accounts of the incident, although her alleged involvement has not been independently confirmed.

Confirming the incident, the deceased’s landlord, Martin York, said the police had conveyed Amponsah’s body, while the family awaited developments in the investigation and the arrest of the suspected perpetrators.

Meanwhile, friends of the deceased have expressed shock and sadness over his death, calling on the Central East Regional Police Command to thoroughly investigate the case and ensure that justice is served.

Police investigations are ongoing, and the circumstances leading to Amponsah’s death remain under investigation.
