Kwame Asare Obeng, better known as A Plus, a Ghanaian musician and Member of Parliament for Gomoa Central, has made a shocking revelation concerning the murder of investigative journalist Ahmed Suale. He disclosed that after supplying critical information to the police, which led to the suspect’s capture, he received a threatening call from the very individual accused of the crime.
“I willingly provided information to the authorities regarding the tragic assassination of journalist Ahmed Suale. To my utter disbelief, the suspect called me after I had shared this information with the police and issued a direct threat against me. I possess even more details about the case, but due to its sensitive nature, I cannot make them public.”
His disclosure has triggered renewed concerns over whistleblower protection and the effectiveness of Ghana’s justice system. Many citizens are questioning how a suspect in such a prominent murder case was able to contact and threaten a witness who played a role in his arrest.
Ahmed Suale, a journalist working with Tiger Eye PI, was shot and killed in 2019, an act that sent shockwaves throughout Ghana and beyond. His assassination, believed to be linked to his investigative journalism, remains a dark stain on Ghana’s record regarding press freedom.
In response to A Plus’s statement, there has been a growing demand for enhanced security for him and a more thorough investigation into the case. The revelation has sparked intense debates on social media, with some commending his courage while others are urging greater transparency from law enforcement.
As Ghana continues to struggle with issues related to journalist safety and press freedom, A Plus’s comments have reignited discussions about the urgent need for stronger protections for individuals who expose wrongdoing. Will authorities take meaningful action following this new information, or will this case join the list of unresolved crimes? The nation eagerly awaits further developments.
