Police arrest ‘gunman’ at AfroFuture Festival

The Ghana Police Service has arrested a man caught on video firing a high-calibre firearm at the AfroFuture Festival held at El-Wak Stadium in Accra on December 28, 2025.

The suspect, Abubakari Sadick, also known as “Cyborg,” was apprehended on December 29 at Adenta. Police say he violated the Firearms Act, 1962, and the Public Order Act, 1994.

Authorities recovered the weapon, a Derya MK-12 firearm with registration number 22-GHA-1162, which has been secured as evidence.

Sadick is currently in police custody assisting with investigations and will be brought to court to face charges.

The Ghana Police Service warned the public that owning a licensed firearm does not give anyone the right to discharge it recklessly. Violators risk losing their license and facing prosecution.
