The Deputy Brong Ahafo Regional Minister, Mr Eric Opoku from whose house a suspected killer was arrested, is suspecting foul play. He believes the whole incident was carefully planned and executed by his detractors to implicate and criminalise him. According to him, the suspect, Kwasi Adu who is accused of killing an evangelist at Sankore in the Asunafo South Constituency of the Brong Ahafo Region in July, had been hoodwinked into going to his (Opoku’s) house. Mr Opoku told Joy FM’s Super Morning Show host Kojo Oppong-Nkrumah that at the time Kwasi Adu, accompanied by a brother got to his Sakumono flat, he was outside home with his wife. He explained that as soon as the suspect sat down to explain that he had received a call claiming that the minister wanted to see him, there was a knock on the door. “Kwasi Adu himself walked to the door and then saw some boy from Sankore and the driver of the current Member of Parliament for Asunafo South, Hon. George Boakye and some policemen and they said they wanted to arrest Kwasi Adu. So my driver called me and said I should talk to the policemen to see what could be done.” He said the police came with a torchlight and a camera and questioned the police's motive for coming to his residence to arrest a suspect with a camera. Mr Eric Opoku denied media reports that he had stated on an Accra radio station that he didn’t know the suspect. “I know Kwasi Adu to be an NDC member. I know Kwasi Adu to be part of our campaign during the 2008 elections and I have been told that (he) was part of the conflict that took place recently and I have not seen him since that incident,” he stated. Mr Opoku, who is also the former MP for the Asunafo South Constituency, said the circumstances surrounding the suspect’s coming to his residence and the arrival of the police to effect his arrest, could not have been a coincidence. The police have declined any further comment on the matter beyond confirming that the suspect was arrested at Sakumono. Story by Malik Abass Daabu/Myjoyonline.com/Ghana
