It is reported that his son, identified as 32-year-old Kweku Nyankomago, attacked and inflicted multiple cutlass wounds on him on Saturday, January 14, 2023.
Nsowah was initially admitted at Abura-Dunkwa District Hospital where he had been rushed to, but was later referred to Cape Coast for advanced care due to the severity of his injuries.
The victim had returned home from his farm and greeted the suspect, but he did not respond. He later rushed his father into the room without any provocation, butchered him with a cutlass and absconded, a police source at Nyankumasi Ahenkro told the Ghana News Agency.
