In a bold statement posted on Facebook, Kwame Asare-Obeng, also known as Kwame A Plus, has given the Ghana Police a 48-hour ultimatum to provide an update on the investigation into the murder of investigative journalist Ahmed Suale or face his wrath in Parliament. The Member of Parliament for Gomoa Central Constituency is demanding transparency and accountability regarding the investigation into Suale’s killing, which has remained a topic of national concern since it occurred.
Key Points from A Plus’s Statement
A Plus recounts his previous involvement in the investigation, detailing his visit to the CID headquarters last year, where he provided vital information regarding the murder. He claims to have identified a high-profile minister from the previous administration allegedly linked to the assassination, naming a credible source in the presence of the CID director.
Call for Public Update
A Plus expressed concern that the investigation appears to have stalled and insists that the CID director should publicly update the nation on the progress of the case. He emphasizes the need for justification if additional time is required for the investigation.
48-Hour Deadline
The MP’s message to the police is clear: if no update is provided within 48 hours, he will take formal action. He plans to use his position in Parliament to summon the Ghana Police Service and demand a briefing on the case. Should the police fail to cooperate, A Plus warns that he will take to his social media platforms to disclose the details he knows about the case, including naming the alleged perpetrator. 
A Plus’s Call for Accountability
In his post, A Plus makes it clear that he intends to hold the authorities accountable if the investigation continues to be ignored. He leverages his position as a Member of Parliament to push for answers, while also indicating that he will not hesitate to use social media to ensure the public is informed.
The Ghanaian public has been waiting for justice in the case of Ahmed Suale, a journalist who was gunned down in 2019. Suale was known for his work with investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas, particularly his exposé on corruption in Ghanaian football, which made national and international headlines.
Conclusion
A Plus’s statement underscores the growing frustration with the pace of investigations in high-profile cases, especially those involving public figures and allegations of political interference. As the deadline approaches, the Ghana Police Service is under pressure to provide a clear and transparent update on the status of the investigation into Ahmed Suale’s murder. Should the authorities fail to act, the MP’s vow to make further disclosures could keep the case in the public eye and intensify calls for justice.
