Municipal Chief Executive for Asokore Mampong, Alhaji Alidu Seidu

Asokore Mampong MCE attacked by robbers
Two armed men have robbed the Municipal Chief
Executive for Asokore Mampong, Alhaji Alidu Seidu
and bolted with the Toyota Hilux pick-up vehicle
he was driving.

The incident happened at about 11:45 pm on Friday,
February 12, 2021, when he was heading to the
Garden City University College at Kenyase.

The armed men approached the vehicle at an
intersection called Agya-Wusu and threatened to
shoot through the glass door if the MCE refuses to
open it.

The armed men then ordered Mr. Seidu to get out of
the vehicle after they took his mobile phones from
him.

They drove away from the vehicle which contained a
bag where the MCE kept his documents and an amount
of GHS2,000.

The MCE then moved to the Kenyase District Police
Command to lodge a complaint after the incident.

The Kenyase District Police Commander, ASP
Christopher Donkor who confirmed the incident to
Citi News said police have begun investigating the
matter.

“The MCE said he was going to the Garden City
College to collect some books when the incident
happened. Upon reaching a junction called Agya
Wusu junction, he stopped for the oncoming vehicle
to come. Immediately he stopped, one guy, came
with a pistol and ordered him to roll down his
glass and give his phone to him. At that time,
another guy also joined, and they became two. They
then ordered him to get down of the vehicle. When
he got down they took the vehicle and drove
away,” ASP Donkor said.

ASP Donkor said that the MCE was unhurt.
