Ghost possessed girl causes uproar in Essikado

The ghost of a 29-year-old man, Eugene Nana Asamoah, is said to have possessed a 12-year-old girl only named as Jennifer, at Essikado, and using her to cause uproar and anger in the community.

The deceased is said to have died a few months ago under mysterious circumstances.

The ghost of Asamoah reportedly possessed Jennifer and changed the accent of the girl to reflect his.

She mentioned four persons, who happened to be the relatives of the deceased, as being behind his death.

After the ghost-possessed girl had mentioned the names, the father of the deceased was said to have lodged a complaint at the chief’s palace for them to be summoned to be questioned.

At the chief’s palace at Essikado on Tuesday, January 13, the ghost-possessed girl accused the elders who were billed to adjudicate the matter of collecting bribe worth Ghc200 from the accused persons, thus stoking more controversy and embarrassment for the elders.

The girl was whisked into a room at the palace and asked to keep quiet, but she kept on revealing more secrets thereby causing a scene.

A resident of the town, Ama Ababio, said the ghost-possessed girl, was able to sign the signature of the deceased correctly on a cheque, which enabled the family to withdraw money from his bank account to pay off his debts.
