Four armed robbers arrived in a car from Dumasua and stopped in front of a mosque at Fiapre Zongo in the Bono Region at around 8:00 p.m. on Wednesday, August 5, 2026, before attacking a female mobile money vendor opposite the mosque. Khadija was shot in the thigh, while her sister, Amina, was shot in the hand as she tried to run to safety.
The robbers also fatally shot Mr. Ibrahim after reportedly mistaking the remote control he was carrying for a firearm. One suspect was seriously injured by iron rods while fleeing and was arrested by the police. The injured victims and the suspect were taken to the Sunyani Teaching Hospital for treatment, while the body of Mr. Ibrahim was conveyed to the morgue. Police have launched a manhunt to apprehend the remaining suspects.

The blast is said to have occurred after a gunshot reportedly hit explosives stored near the site, causing a deadly explosion.
An individual has shared a video of disturbing scenes that unfolded at the Techiman Nursing Training College, where police officers faced off with students protesting the lack of potable water, the absence of lectures since the school resumed a month ago, and calls for a change in the institution’s leadership.

I had the honour and privilege of spending time with His Excellency John Dramani Mahama, President of the Republic of Ghana. After listening to him and understanding his vision for our country, I can honestly say that I take back every negative word I may have said about him.
His vision for Ghana is unmatched. It is not built around short-term applause or political convenience; it is a long-term plan for the future of our nation.
I truly wish every Ghanaian could have the opportunity to spend just a few minutes with him. I believe that anyone who hears him speak and understands the depth of his vision would find it difficult to say anything negative about this honourable man. Ghana is blessed to have him. 🇬🇭 @JDMahama
