It has emerged in the case of a Sowutuom-based musician who was lynched in Kumasi that he was a thief, as the husband of the alleged girlfriend has come forward to refute earlier reports.
Kingsley, the husband, vehemently denies that his wife, Nana Yaa, was involved in a romantic relationship with the deceased musician, Nana Yaw, also known as Wyllbee.
Instead, Kingsley claims that the deceased was an armed robber who attempted to break into their family home, threatening to harm his wife, mother, and child.
He alleges that the family’s shouts for help led to the deceased being apprehended and lynched by a mob while trying to flee.
Kingsley’s account contradicts earlier reports that the musician was spending the night with Nana Yaa, who denied knowing him to protect her marriage.
The husband’s version of events raises questions about the true circumstances surrounding the musician’s death.
Last week, it was reported that up-and-coming artist Wyllbee’s life was brutally cut short in Tanoso, Ashanti Region. The talented musician had visited his girlfriend at her residence, unaware that his fate was sealed.
As Wyllbee left the house at dawn, a mob mistakenly identified him as a thief, fueled by misinformation and malice.
Despite his desperate pleas to verify his identity through his lover, she devastatingly denied knowing him, allegedly to protect her marriage to a Ghanaian-based Brazilian.
The angry residents, driven by a false narrative, mercilessly beat Wyllbee, leading to his tragic demise.
