The victims were identified as the suspect’s father, brother, uncle, 7-year-old cousin, as well as a church pastor and the pastor’s brother. Law enforcement officials say the attacks unfolded in a rural area, sending shockwaves through the tight-knit community.

Preliminary investigations indicate that the suspect moved between multiple locations, carrying out the shootings within a short time frame. Police were alerted after reports of gunfire and quickly launched a manhunt, eventually apprehending the suspect without further casualties.

Authorities have not yet publicly disclosed a motive for the killings. However, investigators say the incident appears to involve domestic and community-related violence, with no immediate indication of terrorism or gang involvement.

Residents described the victims as well-known and respected members of the community, particularly the pastor, who was said to be deeply involved in local church activities and outreach. The killing of a 7-year-old child has drawn widespread outrage and grief.

Law enforcement agencies have increased patrols in the area as investigations continue. Officials say the suspect is expected to face multiple murder charges, and prosecutors are preparing for what is likely to be a high-profile court case.

Community leaders and church members have called for prayers and support for the affected families, as the rural town struggles to come to terms with one of the deadliest incidents in its recent history.

Musician Warns Spiritual Leader to Be Ready for Confrontation

Ghanaian musician Young Don has publicly accused popular spiritual leader Prophet Kwabena Asiamah, widely known as Ajagurajah, of allegedly trying to kill him — a claim that has ignited fierce reactions online. In a viral video shared on social media, Young Don warned Ajagurajah to “be ready for him too,” suggesting that the conflict between them could escalate. 

The feud appears rooted in personal disputes that have played out online and on video platforms, with Young Don repeatedly challenging and lambasting Ajagurajah in comments and clips circulating on Facebook and Instagram. Young Don insists that Ajagurajah’s actions and influence have negatively affected him and has even attributed his personal challenges to the preacher’s involvement, though specific incidents surrounding the alleged attempt remain unverified publicly.

There is no official confirmation from authorities regarding any attempt on Young Don’s life, and claims of violent intent have not been independently corroborated at this time. The dispute has, however, fueled intense online debate, with supporters of both sides weighing in across social media platforms. 

Ajagurajah has previously responded to similar accusations, denying involvement in Young Don’s health issues and rejecting responsibility for his personal challenges.

Cleric Advises Couples to Focus on Commitment Over Cost

Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams has shared practical advice for couples considering marriage, emphasizing that weddings should not be a source of financial stress. According to the Archbishop, “Wedding is a liability if you don’t have money, but is an asset if you have the means. Do weddings, but don’t stress yourself if you don’t have the means.”

He further encouraged couples to prioritize the spiritual and relational aspects of marriage over extravagant celebrations. “Just come to church with your spouse, provide rings, I’ll bless them. Go home and have babies,” he added, highlighting the importance of commitment and family over costly ceremonies.

Should the Law Deal Equally With Armed Robbers and Land Guards in Ghana? Yes/No?

Rising insecurity sparks debate over equal justice for violent crimes

The growing menace of armed robbers and land guards across Ghana has reignited a national debate on whether the law should treat both groups with equal severity. As violent incidents linked to land disputes and robberies continue to dominate headlines, many Ghanaians are asking a critical question: should justice apply equally to both?

Yes — the law must deal with armed robbers and land guards equally or No — They must be treated separately.

Both armed robbers and land guards employ violence, intimidation, and weapons to terrorise citizens. While armed robbers often attack motorists, homes, and businesses, land guards are increasingly linked to shootings, assaults, and killings arising from land ownership disputes. In effect, the impact on public safety is the same — fear, loss of life, and instability.

Should the Law Deal Equally With Armed Robbers and Land Guards in Ghana? Yes/No? 12

Although land guards sometimes operate under the guise of protecting property or enforcing land claims, their actions frequently violate the law. The use of firearms, machetes, and hired muscle to settle disputes undermines the rule of law and fuels insecurity, especially in urban and peri-urban communities.

Ghana’s legal system must therefore send a clear message that violence is violence, regardless of the label attached to the perpetrator. Selective enforcement or leniency only emboldens criminal networks and weakens public confidence in the justice system.

Law enforcement agencies have made notable arrests in recent months, but critics argue that inconsistent prosecution and political interference have allowed some land guard activities to persist. Equal treatment under the law would not only deter crime but also encourage lawful avenues for resolving land disputes through the courts.

As the issue continues to trend across Ghana media platforms, many citizens believe a firm, unbiased application of the law is essential to restoring peace and protecting innocent lives. Justice, they argue, must not differentiate between crimes that produce the same deadly consequences.

The suspects are expected to be arraigned before court after investigations are concluded.
