Kennedy Agyapong, the chairman of the Defence and Interior Committee of Parliament, has taken on the responsibility of caring for the younger brother of Sherrif Imoro, a military officer who was killed at Ashaiman.

A press statement by the Parliament of Ghana on March 16th revealed that Agyapong will pay for the education of the deceased’s brother from primary to tertiary level.

Imoro, a 22-year-old trooper, was allegedly robbed and killed by unknown assailants on March 4th, 2023.

The military later conducted a raid on Ashaiman, resulting in the arrest of 184 people and the seizure of illegal drugs.

During the operation, Agyapong led a committee that included the Minister of Defence and military personnel. Kennedy Agyapong adopts brother of slain soldier at Ashaiman
