On Good Friday, April 7th, 2023, Kofi Annan, a 40-year-old farmer, reportedly committed suicide in his home in Esaman, a suburb of Elmina in the Central Region of Ghana. The farmer allegedly hanged himself with a rope in his bedroom in the early hours of the morning.
According to neighbors who spoke with Kasapa News Yaw Boagyan, the deceased had previously expressed suicidal thoughts. However, on Thursday, April 6th, the day before his death, he appeared to be in good health and showed no signs of distress when he attended church in the evening and went about his usual farming activities earlier that day.
“We saw him Thursday evening together with the children and even saw him earlier in the morning going for his regular farming, so his death is a shock to us. On Good Friday dawn, we heard a noise from his house around 2:00 am after he returned from Church and when we got there we found him hanging on a rope in his bedroom,” a neighbor said.
Following the incident, the Komenda Edina Eguafo District Police Command sent officers to the scene, who then conveyed the body to the morgue. An investigation into the incident has been initiated.
