“We take notice with dissatisfaction of the announcement made today by the Minister of Communications regarding the disastrous SIM re-registration effort, in which she neglected to extend an apology to Ghanaians for the disruption related to the exercise.

A well-known house burglar in Sekondi has been grabbed again after allegedly attempting to burgle a house in Kweikuma in the Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolis.

He was tied to an electric pole and interrogated on his reasons for his actions to which he replied that he went there looking for firewood.
The burglar, an ex-convict, was jailed at a very young age and had been frequenting the prison cells since.
He has become a menace to the community where he lives.
In June 2022, the said burglar was suspected of ransacking a mechanical shop in Bakaekyir of which he was apprehended. His wrist was cut as a punishment by the apprehenders.
As if this action would deter him from embarking on another burglary, it did not.

An indigene of Ogbunike in Oyi Local Government Area of Anambra State, Mr George Okoye, has allegedly killed his younger brother’s wife, over a protracted tussle over the ownership of property.
Nigerian Tribune gathered that Okoye allegedly led his wife and children into his brother, Mr Emenike Okoye’s compound to beat him and his wife, Mrs Nkiru Okoye, who died out of the beating.
Emenike who however survived the incident sustained a broken hand, a fractured waist, and an injured eye from the beating, and was still recuperating in a hospital.
The sick man who spoke to journalists from his hospital bed narrated the incident that led to his 40-year-old wife’s death on July 19 with tears, saying he was only abandoned by the attackers because they thought he had died.
Though the suspect, Mr George Okoye has been arrested and is currently in police custody, the whereabouts of his wife, Mrs Uzonna Okoye, twins daughters and son, Somtochukwu Okoye who participated in the beating were still unknown.
Mr Emenike Okoye, narrating the story of his wife’s death said, “I was preparing for work that day, and my wife was preparing the children for school and to also travel home for a meeting in Abba, Njikoka Local Government Area, where she is from, when George and his wife, Uzonna and their son, Somtochukwu and twin daughters invaded my house around 7 am to 8 am.
“They overpowered us, beat us to stupor, and left. Later when my children have gone to school, they returned with some persons and dangerous weapons, including an axe.
“They dragged my wife outside the house, hit and killed her with axe and chair. She fell and died. When I resisted their move to drag me outside too, they broke my hand with an axe and dragged me outside; hitting me with the axe all over my body until I passed out.
“You can see the cut on my eyes. They left me, thinking that I was also dead. But God helped me to wake up later. I reported the incident to our local vigilante and they drove me to hospital.”
The father of five begged for help, and also for justice since his elder brother has been at loggerheads with the family, over the property for several years.
“George right from when our mother (Mrs Adaoba Okoye) was alive, said he is our landlord. He is not our firstborn, yet he claims ownership of the entire compound and always fights with all of us.
“I lived and worked overseas, but when the company where I was working folded, I returned home. We had our first three children overseas, and our last two here (in Ogbunike).
“My wife has nothing to do with this. Why kill her for nothing? After we returned home trouble started. The crisis led to the death of our mother and our eldest brother. He reported us to the kindred, and our property was shared, with him taking the larger part. I took mine without complaining. Later, he started laying claims to my house.
“He reported me to our kindred but it was settled to my favour. He disagreed and kept on troubling me. When I laid dwarf perimeter fence, he pulled it down, and even reported me to the kindred,” he lamented.
The Anambra State Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO Tochukwu Ikenga, said he was aware of the incident, stating that an investigation on the matter had long commenced, and was still ongoing.
