The burnt body of Steffen King Amoah, a Ghana Immigration Service officer, who was reported missing under mysterious circumstances since Thursday, July 3, 2025, has been found at Abuom Junction near Kwabenya in the Greater Accra region.
According to reports, the family complained to the Taifa Police on July 4, 2025, after several attempts to reach him.
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”.
His brother, Akwasi Amoako, has confirmed Nana Kofi body has been found dead.
According to reports, his neck was slashed, his body was burned, and he was then wrapped in a woollen carpet.
His body has since been deposited at the Police Hospital Mortuary after being identified by his relatives.
Some Ghanaians have reacted to the news by saying, “ They should check the location history of his friend’s phone since the time the victim left the house (Thursday). If Kwanbenya and the specific location where the body was found are found in his location history, then he’s either the murderer or knew about it.”.
“Whoever is found guilty of his murder should be given lethal injection in the courtroom right there and then.”, another X user concluded.
One more X user wrote, “The murderer still lied that he didn’t only settle the 200k debt but also gave the officer 300k to keep for him. He then used the officer’s phone to text his wife that he was back home, just to deceive her and cover his tracks. He butchered and burned him. He should be jailed for life”.
“You owe someone and you decided to off him and burn am, ei humans are wicked o, I’m never lending money to anyone”, another Ghanaian added.
It has been confirmed that my friend and fellow Arsenal supporter, Nana Kofi, has been found dead.
According to reports, his neck was slashed, his body was burned, and he was then wrapped in a blanket.
