President Akufo-Addo has reiterated the government’s commitment to bring the murderers of investigative journalist Ahmed Hussein-Suale to justice.
Speaking at the closing ceremony of the 3rd African Media Convention in Accra on Friday, President Akufo-Addo said his administration will ensure that the old journalists get justice.
He said the various state institutions responsible for dealing with the matter will be up to the task and ensure that the offenders are apprehended.
He also assured the protection of the country’s democracy and the efforts of law enforcement agencies to seek justice for Hussein-Suale.
“I assure you that Ghana’s image as a beacon of democracy on the African continent will not be diminished in this election year. It will be fully safeguarded, as will the efforts of the law enforcement agencies to bring the killers of Ahmed Swale to justice, no matter how long it takes,” he stated.
The late Ahmed Hussein-Suale was an undercover investigative journalist from Ghana.
He was part of the Tiger P.I. investigative team that conducted an investigation into the exposure of corruption in the Ghana Football Association, Number 12.
This investigation led to the dismissal and lifetime ban of its president, Kwesi Nyantakyi.
He was murdered on January 16, 2019.
Unidentified assailants on motorbikes shot him three times, twice in the chest and once in the neck, while he was in his vehicle.
