The Ghana Police Service has apprehended four suspects linked to the murder of a Mobile Money (MoMo) vendor in Aflao, located in the Volta Region.

The suspects—Michael Sewornu, 34; Korku Agboada, 43; Atsu Agbagla, 36; and Utsuku Onyeso, 22, a Nigerian national—are currently in custody and assisting with investigations.

According to a statement released by the Volta Regional Police Command, the arrests were made on May 10, 2025, during a coordinated intelligence-led operation.

The operation involved the Regional Police Intelligence Department (RPID), the SWAT Unit, the Operation Motherland Taskforce, and a local community watch group named ‘ACTION NOW’.
