The chief suspect behind the murder of two policemen at Gomoa Budumburam, Eric Kojo Duah has revealed that his late mother, Prophetess Elizabeth Boateng was his everything prior to her death.

“Words cannot heal the pain of losing someone so dear. She was my everything, friend, Advisor, Mentor and teacher; above all she was sold out to the work of her maker. A true prophetess”, this was contained in a tribute read at the requiem service of the General Overseer of Strong Living Fire Ministry International.

Eric Kojo Duah and 6 other accomplices were arraigned before a Keneshie District Court presided over by Justice Rosemond Dodua Agyiri and charged with conspiracy to commit murder, abetment of murder and murder.

Duah, who was declared wanted by the Ghana Police Service for allegedly shooting Sergeant Eric Dzamesi and Lance Corporal Mohammed Awal, had been in hiding since Wednesday afternoon until luck run out on him last Saturday morning.

But he told police interrogators that one of the deceased persons caused the death of his mother.

Though he refused to explain how it all happened, he admits he only fired one shot at one of the murdered police officers contrary to earlier reports that he shot the deceased twice in the upper part which led to his death at the scene of the crime.
