A 21-year-old man stabbed to death at Effia
What began as a mere exchange of words between two
friends has cost the life of a 21-year-old
Emmanuel Ato Simpson at Effia in the Effia
Kwesiminstim Municipal of the Western Region.





The deceased according to an eyewitness was
stabbed many times and thrown into the Effia main
drain at 10 pm on Saturday.

He said the quarrel happened after severe warning
to the deceased and his friends to stop smoking
marijuana at the back of the assailant's house but
they were adamant.

A fight then ensued between them that night where
the deceased threatened his accuser with a knife,
the two, the eye witness said fell into the open
gutter where his assailant had an upper hand over
him.

He said Ato was later taken to the hospital where
he was pronounced dead on arrival.

Mena Esiah, the fetish priestess of the Effia
community was worried about the bad behaviour of
young people in the community and prayed that city
authorities will engage them in profitable
ventures.

"Because they are not working and are always idle
they engage themselves in so many social vices.
The government must come to their aid in getting
the youth something to do ."
The Effia Police confirmed the incident and said
investigations have commenced into the matter to
bring the perpetrators to book.
