A Trotro driver by name Sampson Kwaku Ayisi, 61, has committed suicide at Alajo, a suburb of Accra.
The sad incident occurred Thursday at Alajo Down Town, close to the Virtue International School.
He was found hanging in the kitchen by his wife Thursday morning. Madam Lydia Wiafe, the wife of the deceased, suspects her husband took his own life because it was becoming unbearable for him to raise money to settle a GHC900 debt he owed his ‘car owner’, a police officer.

“The car owner showed us two eggs and a bottle of schnapps when we visited him Monday to plead for more time. He warned my father that he would be dead by Saturday if the debt was still outstanding,” she narrated.
The Homicide Unit of the Ghana Police and the Kotobabi District Police Command have initiated investigations into the matter.
