Reports indicate the assailants, who were on a motorbike, attacked him with machetes and quickly sped away.

He and one other suspect, ‘Big Man Lebu' believed to have chased the deceased with a locally manufactured pistol, are yet to be arrested.

Ashanti Regional Police Commander, DCOP Kofi Boakye emphasized that the investigation is devoid of any partisan, tribal or any sectional considerations.

“We would like people to allow the police to do their work. This is a murder investigation, all that we know is that somebody has been killed,” he stated.
