The Ghana Police Service has announced a GH₵20,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of individuals wanted for issuing threats of violence ahead of the 2024 general elections.

The suspects, including Fuseini Yahuza, Bernard Ahedor, Simon, Basit, and Musa Yakubu, also known as “Agya Musah,” have been on the run since 15 November. The group was allegedly involved in a viral video containing statements aimed at disrupting the December polls.

In a statement dated 15 November, police described their actions as a violation of public order under Section 207 of Ghana’s Criminal Offences Act, 1960 (Act 29). The suspects have since been declared wanted.

Renewing their appeal on 24 November, police urged the public to assist with their ongoing investigation.

“A reward of GH₵20,000 is being offered to anyone who provides credible information leading to the arrest of the suspects,” the statement read. The public can contact the police via a dedicated hotline at 0547927272.

Authorities reassured citizens of their commitment to ensuring peace and security as the nation prepares for the elections.
