A 21-year-old mobile money (MoMo) vendor has been shot and killed by suspected armed robbers at Quarters Junction at Ngleshie Amanfro in the Ga South Municipality of the Greater Accra Region.

The incident reportedly occurred on Wednesday, July 9, 2025, when the victim closed his business for the day, and he was ambushed, shot multiple times by the unidentified gunmen.

An eyewitness identified as Ruben Kumor said two men on a motorbike approached the vendor under the pretense of performing a transaction before pulling out a gun and demanding cash.

The victim, whose name disclosed as Desmond Adzah, was rushed to the hospital but was pronounced dead on arrival.

The tragic incident has sent shockwaves through the Ngleshie Amanfro community, where residents have repeatedly raised concerns about increasing robbery cases, especially targeting mobile money operators and small business owners.

Police from the Amanfro District Command have launched an investigation into the incident and are appealing to the public for any information that could lead to the arrest of the suspects.

Meanwhile, the family of the deceased is calling for justice, urging authorities to take urgent steps to improve security in the area.

The Mobile Money (MoMo) business has become one of the most popular and accessible sources of income for many Ghanaians.

From the bustling streets of Accra to rural communities, MoMo vendors are playing a crucial role in deepening financial inclusion and providing essential services to underserved populations.

Mobile Money (MoMo) vendors across Ghana are raising alarm over growing security threats as cases of armed robbery and violent attacks targeting them continue to surge.

In recent months, several vendors have been attacked—some fatally—while operating their businesses in both urban and rural areas.

These attacks have triggered fear among operators and sparked calls for better protection. Many vendors now work in constant fear, especially during early morning and late evening hours when they are most vulnerable.

Earlier, the Mobile Money Agents Association of Ghana (MMAAG) condemned the attacks and urged the Ghana Police Service to intensify patrols and improve response times in communities with high robbery rates.
