The family of Nelson Kofi Anyina, a 25-year-old man who was gruesomely murdered for suspected ritual purposes and buried in a shrine, is appealing to the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Christian Tetteh Yohuno, to ensure justice is served for their slain relative.
Nelson Kofi Anyina, a native of Wusuta in the Volta Region, was reported missing on December 4, 2024, after he left for Mafi Gblorkope in the Central Tongu District of the Volta Region.
His disappearance remained a mystery until months later when his decomposed body was exhumed from a shrine believed to be used for ritualistic activities.
Speaking in an exclusive interview On July 9, 2025, Rev Canon Dr Confidence Bansah, the founder of the Center for Religion and Public Life (CRPL-Ghana) and a family member, called on the IGP to launch a full-scale investigation into the circumstances surrounding Nelson's disappearance and subsequent murder.
