According to Ekua, a passenger on the bus, the bus left the Abenbebon Station at Apremdo, Takoradi at around 10:30 pm on Sunday, Feb. 20 and it was hours after that they got attacked by men of the underworld.

In her words: "At around 3:30 am on Monday, February 21, 2022, about five armed robbers with rifles and other weapons attacked us and made away with our monies and other belongings. All of them were wearing masks," the passenger narrated.

 

Ekua added that the armed robbers, after the robbery, requested that they remember them in prayers.

She said: "After the robbery, they asked us to pray for them because it was not their will to stop vehicles on the highway and rob passengers of their belongings but the system has compelled them to do so."

 

Another man in the bus said the armed robbers took away his bag containing GH¢8,500.

 

"I’m a driver and I was going to buy an engine for my vehicle in Kumasi. My Mobile Money phone was last week stolen by another set of armed robbers at Kintampo so I decided to carry the money in my bag but unfortunately, I have been robbed again," he told 3news.
