The Central Regional branch of the Ghana Journalists’ Association (GJA) has described as “unacceptable” the killing of Samuel Enin, Ashanti regional chairman of the Association in Kumasi last Friday.
A statement signed by the chairman, Mr George Ebo Sackey, expressed utmost disgust at the reprehensible act and urged the public to assist the police to find the culprits “at all cost”.
It said the branch will want to believe that it was not an act to settle personal scores because this would have a dent on the nation’s young democracy, and similarly, condemned the use of assailants to harass people especially journalists to settle scores, adding that such culprits must be brought to book.
“We cannot accept that any circumstances could have led the assailants to commit the brutal murder of Mr Enin”, the statement stressed.
The late Mr Enin, who was also the News Editor of the Kumasi-based Ash FM, was shot in the stomach at about 2030 hours at a drinking spot close to the radio station.
