Assembly member shot at his home
Adzahli was killed in his home by unknown assailants who broke into his apartment at dawn of Sunday, March 1.
The armed assailants allegedly used cement blocks to destroy the assembly member’s burglar-proof doors before entering his room.
Witnesses said the attackers shot Mr. Adzahli several times, leading to his death.
The late assemblyman’s wife and child, who also sustained injuries in the attack have since been treated and discharged from the hospital.
Former presidents, John Mahama and Jerry Rawlings commiserated with the family with the later placing a GH¢25,000 bounty on the heads of the killers.
