Popular Somanya businessman allegedly killed by mentally unstable man

Teye Emmanuel, known as ‘Ghana Bar,’ was fatally stabbed on October 20, 2024, in Somanya, Eastern Region, by a man identified as Dodji, who is reportedly mentally unstable.

The incident occurred at the Akutunya Lorry Station during a Sunday savings meeting when Dodji approached the group's money-saving box.
