Krofrom Killer: The popular Kumasi 'killer' who was jailed by Rawlings for 12 years without trial

A well-known Ghanaian figure in Kumasi, Kweku Kweku, also known as ‘Krofrom Killer,’ has shared his experiences during Jerry John Rawlings' presidency in Ghana.

He recounted that following the 1979 coup by the former president, the country experienced considerable turmoil, with many suffering unjustly.

He recalled that Rawlings labelled him a notorious figure in Kumasi, a claim he refuted, attributing it to public misconception.

"I was in Kumasi in 1979 when Rawlings' coup took place.

The situation compelled me to move to Kumasi for business.

Rawlings confronted me, alleging, 'I am the infamous individual from Kumasi who has fled to Accra to perpetuate his notoriety.' I contested his allegations, being very assertive," he narrated during an interview with Poleeno Multimedia and monitored by GhanaWeb.
