They  shower me with gifts and I think that is what my uncle envies about me  so that why I killed him,\u201d he stated. \u201cIf you set me free today, I will  not kill anybody again because he was the only one I needed to kill and I  have planted a lot of mangoes I have to take care of,\u201d he pleaded with  the police.<br \/>\nHe was on Monday referred to the Ankaful Psychiatric  Hospital while the docket has been sent to the Attorney General\u2019s office  for advice. Investigations conducted by Daily Guide indicate that  Ahinful is a chain wee smoker.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Residents of Ansofona in the Abura Asebu Kwamankese (AAK) District of the Central Region were shocked when Kow Ahinful, a 35-year-old Rasta man, slaughtered his 75-year-old uncle, Kweku Afful last Thursday.
