The sad incident occurred at Enyan Abowinum in the Central Region on Wednesday, May 11, 2022.

Tando reportedly committed the act following marital issues he was having with his wife, and he decided to marry another woman.

It is reported that the priest’s first daughter told newsmen that her father had threatened to shoot all five children as a result of the continuous confusion and tension in the family.

The mother of the deceased woman, Adwoa Oduma, expressed worry over the incident, saying that she had been taking steps to resolve the marital issues between her daughter and her husband.

The bodies of the deceased were deposited at the Cape Coast Teaching Hospital Mortuary for autopsy and preservation, while the other children of the deceased have also been assigned to a counselor.
