A Freelance Journalist in the area, Gilbert Bediako explained that the Fetish Priest attempted using the boy for money rituals for a woman identified as Nana Akua.

The Fetish Priest collected GHC25,00 from the woman, promising to double the money for her.

‘He consulted the Fetish Priest to perform rituals for her by doubling the money for her, the former who could not make her rich was pressurised to come up with a new plan, the Fetish Priest told the woman that he can only make her rich if he gets human blood, hence the attempted murder,’ he narrated.
