A 28-year-old woman has been found dead in her boyfriend’s room at Essikadu in the Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolis of the Western Region, with police arresting the man as investigations into the circumstances surrounding her death continue.
The deceased, identified as Maame Ekua, reportedly left her home at New Takoradi on Thursday after informing her mother that she was travelling to Obuasi for an undertaking assignment.
However, reports indicate that she had instead gone to visit her boyfriend at Essikadu.
The incident came to light on Saturday, November 7, when her mother received a telephone call informing her of an emergency involving her daughter at the Essikadu Hospital.
Upon arriving at the hospital, she was reportedly directed to a house, where she was informed that Maame Ekua had been found dead in a room.
The circumstances leading to her death remain unclear.
Police have arrested the deceased’s boyfriend to assist with investigations as authorities work to establish what happened before she was found dead.
Further details about the incident, including the cause of death, have not yet been established.
