Michael Kwabena Amoako a Ghanaian USA based man who was Sumankwahene for the Ghanaian community in Columbus has committed suicide after committing homicide.
The 49-year-old man was found dead by police after they got called to a domestic violence incident. His wife, 50-year-old Harriet Aboagye, was found with critical gunshot wounds and taken to hospital.
The background of the story, as narrated by Kofi Adoma, reveals that Michael Amoako won the American Visa Lottery and travelled to New York in the States.
Once there, he worked to bring Harriet Yaa Gyamfua Aboagye to come join him there, and over the course of their relationship they welcomed 4 children.
However, Yaa had a boyfriend in Ghana, Yaw Duah, who she was getting close to marrying before she left him and took the chance to join Amoako in the States.
She recently returned to Ghana and reconnected with Yaw Duah and planned their marriage rites.
After informing Michael Amoako about it, he lost his mind and shot her before killing himself.
Before his dastardly act, Amoako recorded an audio to reveal his intentions and lay out his will. He informed his family to fly his body back to Ghana once he’s dead.
He added that no one should blame him for the incident but should rather blame his partner.
