The Ashanti Regional Police Command has successfully prosecuted and convicted three Nigerian nationals, Francis Friday, Linus Agwazie, and Russell Ekenze, for engaging in theft activities targeting parked vehicles in the Kumasi Metropolis.

The suspects were arrested on June 20, 2025, and arraigned before various courts in July 2025.

Russell Ekenze was sentenced to 10 years imprisonment with hard labour after pleading guilty, while Francis Friday and Linus Agwazie were sentenced to 8 years imprisonment with hard labour after being found guilty.

All three suspects received an additional 20-year sentence on separate charges, with the sentences to run concurrently.

The convicts are currently serving their sentences at the Kumasi Central Prison.

The Ashanti Regional Police Command DSP Godwin Ahianyo in an interview with OTEC News Reporter Kwame Agyenim Boateng on Saturday, September 6, 2025, on the case commended its collaboration with the judiciary in ensuring that criminal elements face the full rigors of the law.

The police urge the public to continue cooperating with law enforcement by reporting suspicious activities and providing timely information to aid in crime prevention and public safety.

Sigh!

Will it be acceptable if we blame the president of Ghana for not providing jobs? Cos that’s the same excuse we give back home for crimes.

The government is bad and why youths are into internet fraud, kidnapping and prostitution. Can we now say the Ghanaian President failed them.

This is a justice system serious about stopping crime.

Why is Nigeria filled with useless judiciary and politicians?

Evans that is supposed to be executed to serve as deterrence is being worshipped in jail.

Some people just lack shame.

No sense of honour or dignity.

How can you leave your country and go to another country and start stealing cars there?

Small Ghana for that matter.

What is this?

If things are not working for you there, return home and find something doing. angry

No need to check names again

What I just can't understand is why these old men are still robbing?

Aren't they already too old for the game?

This could be why Ghanaians started sealing Nigerian shops yesterday. The video was trending on X and tiktok. Perhaps, they have had enough.
