The Ghana Police Service is investigating the death of a 33-year-old man who allegedly died after being stabbed by his 19-year-old girlfriend during a disagreement at Ofankor Barrier in Accra.
The deceased, identified as Enoch Abrokwa, reportedly sustained a deep chest wound during a confrontation with his girlfriend, Emmanuella Asante, at his business premises on Friday, October 9, 2026.
According to a press release issued by the Accra Regional Police Command on Wednesday, October 21, preliminary investigations indicate that the disagreement escalated, resulting in the suspect allegedly stabbing Abrokwa in the chest with a piece of broken glass.
He was initially rushed to a hospital at Taifa-Burkina before being referred to the Ridge Hospital, where he underwent surgery for a deep wound that affected his intestines.
However, he died on October 14 while receiving treatment.
The police said the suspect was arrested on October 10 following a complaint by the deceased and three other persons. She reportedly admitted to the stabbing and remains in police custody as investigations continue.
Emmanuella Asante has since appeared before the court and been remanded into police custody. She is expected to reappear on November 3, 2026.
The Accra Regional Police Command has urged the public to resolve disagreements peacefully and refrain from violence.
It has also called on the public to cooperate with the police as investigations continue and the necessary legal processes are pursued.
