Baba Solomon says his wife agreed to pay the gang of four an amount of GHC40,000
• A 43-year-old man has revealed how his wife contracted a gang of four men to kill him
• Baba Solomon says his wife wants him dead so she can acquire his properties
• He said one of the gang members revealed the plot to him
A 43-year-old resident of Sefwi in the Western Region, Baba Solomon, says he narrowly escaped death because a gang member was kind enough to reveal a plot by his wife to get him killed.
Baba Solomon, narrating his story on Oyerepa FM’s ‘Oyerpa Afutuo’, said he had a fall out with his wife, Lucy Ali.
According to Baba Solomon, while the misunderstanding was still ragging, a young man approached him to inform him that his wife had a gang which he was part of to kill him (Baba).
Solomon said that the young man told him that the gang, made up of four men, charged his wife GH¢80,000 but that was subsequently reduced.
Narrating the encounter with the host, he noted, “He said they charged her GH¢80,000 and they negotiated downwards to GH¢40,000 but she was still insisting that she would not be able to come up with such an amount.
“She agreed to make an advance payment of GH¢10,000 and then make the remaining payment once they kill me. She left for Kumasi to go and prepare and that was when one of the gang members approached me to inform me of the plot.”
Lucy, according to Solomon told the gang they were divorced and she didn’t want another woman’s children inheriting his properties.
“She told them that I had divorced her and her worry was that my properties will go to the children of the next woman I will get married to. She said she wanted me dead so she can have my properties and the ones left me by my father.”
Baba Solomon further stated that the young man, as proof of his allegation, called Lucy in his presence to inform her that they needed more funds for their operation.
A voice recording of the conversation between the gang member and Lucy which was played on the programme, had her telling the young man that she was not within the right confines to speak on the matter, thus asked to call back later to discuss the matter.
By the instructions of Lucy Ali, he said “she asked them to come to my house. If they knock and I don’t open, they should burn me and the entire house. If I open the door, they should shoot me. I travel a lot on a motorbike so she further instructed that if they monitor me and meet me on the road, they should knock me down.”
Upon hearing the plot by his wife to have him killed, Ali said he, together with the gang member, filed a case at Debiso Police Station.
