Aremeyaw Nasigri was shot dead by unknown gunmen on Wednesday night at a drinking spot in the community.
East Mamprusi Municipal Chief Executive (MCE), Abdul Nasir Baba who confirmed the incident to JoyNews, said the deceased was having drinks with his colleagues when the attackers arrived on a motorbike and shot him multiple times.
Quoting eyewitnesses and security sources, the MCE said the killing occurred about 9 pm. The Gbintri chief’s palace has also confirmed the murder.
