A 27-year-old Mobile Money (MoMo) vendor, Patricia Nimako, has been shot and killed at Krofrom in the Ashanti region.
The suspected armed robbers bolted with an amount of GH₵10,000 and mobile phones.
The two armed men shot her in her MoMo kiosk at around 3:00pm on Thursday, February 13.
An eyewitness alleged the lady was shot in front of her shop after withdrawing money from the bank.
"We tried to chase the perpetrators but their gun scared us, they left and went in the direction of airport road," said Evans.
The lady was rushed to the Manhyia Government Hospital where doctors confirmed her passing.
Some residents say they live in fear of a possible return of the robbers.
The police have visited the scene to begin an investigation into the matter. Robbery attacks on MoMo vendors have become rampant in Ghana. Several MoMo vendors have been killed, whereas others have been injured.
