The deceased was pronounced dead shortly on arrival at the Effia Nkwanta Regional Hospital in Sekondi.

The father of the deceased, Osei Kojo, told Citi News’ Western Regional Correspondent, Obrempong Yaw Ampofo, that he had been against the romantic relationship because he believed the two were too young, and needed to focus on their education.

According to the father, when news got to him that his first son had been stabbed, he could not believe it, because to the best of his knowledge, he had called off the relationship between the two.

He however admitted that, some community members had informed him that the two were secretly continuing the affair.

According to  Obrempong Yaw Ampofo, Monica Derry, the suspect, is currently in the grips of the Takoradi central police command.
