A former associate of the late investigative journalist Ahmed Suale at Tiger Eye PI, Daniel Owusu Koranteng has been charged with murder.
Daniel Owusu Koranteng has been charged in connection to the death of Ahmed Suale and has been accused of causing the Ahmed Suale death.
The information gathered from the case details reveals, that Daniel Owusu Koranteng was near Suale’s residence in Madina before and during the time of the shooting.
According to reports, Owusu Koranteng left Madina that night to his home around 11 pm and evaded the Ghana Police Service invitation.
He later fled to the UK in 2019 and was arrested on March 15, 2025, after he returned to Ghana.
It has also been revealed that Ahmed Suale identified Daniel Owusu Koranteng as the individual who sold his picture to the former lawmaker Kennedy Agyapong.
The Madina District Court has since remanded Owusu Koranteng into custody and the case has been adjourned to April 1.
Ahmed Suale was tragically shot and killed in a ride-by shooting near his home in Madina, a suburb of the capital, Accra after Kennedy Agyapong’s utterances.
Eyewitnesses said he was killed by two men who fired at the car from close range as it slowed for a junction. The first bullet hit Hussein-Suale in the neck and the car accelerated, crashing into a storefront. One of the gunmen calmly approached the driver’s side and fired two shots through the broken window directly into Hussein-Suale’s chest. Then he turned to those watching, smiled, and raised a finger to his lips.
It is believed that the 31-year-old Ahmed was assassinated due to the investigative work he did with the Tiger Eye PI team and Anas Aremeyaw Anas.
His death came after the Tiger Eye team aired its famous Number 12 expose, which exposed widespread corruption in African football and led to the end of the illustrious career of the then Ghana Football Association (GFA) President, Kwesi Nyantakyi.
When the expose aired, then Assin Central Member of Parliament (MP), Kennedy Agyapong began a campaign against the Anas team calling for Anas to be hanged.
Weeks after the expose aired, he used his television station to disclose the identity of Ahmed Suale and the neighbourhood in which he lived, saying, “If you meet him somewhere, slap him… beat him,” he said. “Whatever happens, I’ll pay.”
Meanwhile, Kennedy Agyapong in an interview with TV3 clarified his comments, his comments were aimed at preventing Suale from entering his premises, asserting that Suale had been involved in setting up individuals and subsequently causing them harm.
He stated, “I still maintain it (views about Suale) because I will not come here today and tell you that I want to be president and therefore what is the truth, I will say it is not the truth, it is. He is a bad guy or he was and let me tell you, if you don’t have the evidence, Anas used him…all those people that Anas destroyed with his videos and everything.
“Anas never showed his face except this guy, this guy was bold to set everybody up. I have a lot of videos, gentleman if you have time and you come to my house, I will show you all the videos…all the entrapment, it was Ahmed Suale, who was sitting down with fake Arabs, who were saying that they were from the family of Shiek Al Thani, so until the video comes out you will never know that it is Anas,” he said.
