Oman Fm’s reporter Solomon Sasu Mensah who visited the house on Tuesday morning, reports that some minority MPs, family members, friends, the police and CID officers have been to the house.
According to him, the house has been put under lock with family members who were with him evacuated to enable the police pick up the necessary leads that could lead to the arrest of the perpetrators.
“The Greater Accra Police Commander is also here. A woman has been put in a vehicle and taken away but I cannot tell if she’s the MP’s wife.”
Sasu says the police are yet to give out more information on the incident. The late Joseph Boakye Danquah, is a chartered Accountant by profession.
He is the grandson of late J.B Danquah, a Ghanaian statesman, pan-Africanist, scholar and historian, who played a significant role in pre- and post-colonial Ghana.
