A 37-year old forestry guard, Daniel Obeng, has gone missing in the Nkwanta South Municipality of the Oti Region.

Information gathered by the Ghana News Agency (GNA), reveals Obeng was last seen on July 4, 2025, after being transferred from Nkwanta township to Tutukpene, a suburb of Nkwanta South.

GNA gathered that the victim joined the Forestry Service Commission in 2012 and had previously worked at Brewaniase and Bontibo, cocoa farming communities in Nkwanta South.

Obeng was known for his tireless work ethic and had recently been transferred to his new jurisdiction, where relatives, friends and colleagues have not been able to contact him.
