Finding a reliable helper in town these days is becoming a serious wahala for business owners.
A young woman recently got employed to sell local kenkey and help manage daily business transactions.
Instead of working hard to earn an honest daily bread, she chose a very criminal shortcut.
Just two hours after taking over the counter, she vanished into thin air with seventeen thousand cedis.
The massive hunt and sudden arrest
Her angry employer realized the money was missing and immediately started tracking her movements all over town.
The suspect went into hiding and managed to stay off the radar from Saturday until today.
Law enforcement and concerned locals finally tracked her down to a popular local drinking spot.
She was chilling comfortably without any remorse before officers swooped in to pick her up.
Confession reveals boyfriend connection
During police questioning, the young woman finally opened her mouth to confess the bitter truth.
She admitted that she stole the entire sales cash and quickly dash part of it to her boyfriend.
As soon as the boyfriend realized that the police had caught his girlfriend, he took to his heels.
That cowardly escape left people wondering why anyone would risk their freedom for a temporary romance.
This unfortunate incident serves as a massive wake-up call for traders who employ people without proper checks.
Trusting a complete stranger with heavy daily sales requires deep caution and proper documentation in Ghana.
Business owners must always verify guarantor details before handing over their hard-earned cash boxes to new workers.
