Tragedy has befallen the family of late New Patriotic Party (NPP) stalwart, Albert Adu Boahen, as his son, Christopher Adu Boahen, was tragically robbed and killed at his residence in East Legon, an Accra suburb.
According to a report from Asaaseradio.com, armed robbers forcefully entered his home, conducted an extensive search, and ended Christopher's life during the ordeal.
The report referenced a Facebook post by the 1995 year group of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), where Christopher pursued electrical engineering.
“Sad to announce the untimely passing of our classmate, Christopher. Wicked persons entered his home, ransacked the place, and robbed him of his life. His home, at East Legon, has been barricaded by the police and declared a crime scene.
“May the soul of our brother find rest in the Lord. Bad news for a Monday morning but let’s keep our spirits up and look forward to a great week,” the post said.
Christopher Adu Boahen came from a distinguished political lineage, with his father being the NPP's inaugural presidential candidate in the 1992 elections, marking Ghana's return to democracy during the Fourth Republic.
Furthermore, he was the sibling of Charles Adu Boahen, who served as both deputy minister for finance and minister of state at the Ministry of Finance in the Akufo-Addo administration.
