Stephen King Amoah, an officer with the Ghana Immigration Service, has been reported missing under mysterious circumstances since Thursday, July 3, 2025.
The information gathered from the family suggests, Amoah left home that evening, Thursday, July 3, after receiving a call from a friend who allegedly owed him GHS200,000.
In a post on X, EDHUB wrote, “The friend, whose identity has not yet been officially disclosed, reportedly invited him to Ashongman Estates to repay the debt.
Before leaving, Amoah informed his wife about the meeting.
Later that evening, his wife, who was away from home, received a message from her husband’s phone indicating he had returned home safely with the money.
Suspicious of the message, she asked Amoah’s brother to check on him at their residence. However, upon arrival, Amoah was nowhere to be found”.
They added, “The family’s attempts to reach him since then have been unsuccessful. His phone remains switched off, and no trace of him has been found.
In a twist, the friend who allegedly invited Amoah admitted to meeting him and claimed he not only paid the GHS200,000 debt but also gave him an additional GHS300,000 to keep safely. The friend has since been arrested and is currently in police custody as investigations continue.
The disappearance has left the family distressed, as they continue to appeal for public support and swift action from law enforcement agencies”.
Meanwhile, the family is urging anyone with information about Stephen King Amoah’s whereabouts to contact 0242548965 or report to the nearest police station.
Some Ghanaians have reacted to the news by saying, “ But why must you go and meet somebody for your money 💰 alone. Why not meet at a place where people are. Secret alone die Secret 🙊”.
“HE WAS LURED AND MURDERED. The GIS Officer was tricked out and murdered by his friend, the debtor. His story is too sweet to be true. They should apply some electric shocks to his balls, and he will confess everything”, another X user concluded.
A netizen wrote, “Proper foul play. Just release his pic of his friend and someone somewhere might know something Abt it”.
One more X user wrote, “This is serious, nobody gets this sum of money and simply sends a message. He will call and tell his wife about it. We lack IT experts in the country, the police should trace the last location of his phone and ask permission from MT”.
“This is unsettling. If someone can vanish like this over money, then trust is truly fragile these days. I hope the police dig deeper; that friend’s story doesn’t add up at all. Sharing this might just help find Stephen; someone out there knows something. Let’s keep our eyes open”, another Ghanaian added.
