The Ghana Police Service have announced the arrest of two suspects in connection to the murder of a young female footballer.

Fabulous Ladies footballer Agartha Takyiwa was killed by two assailants on the night of Thursday, October 29, 2026.

The 22-year-old amateur footballer rode a Bajaj Tricycle part-time to make ends meet because the women’s game in Ghana is not that rewarding.

Takyiwa had picked up the suspects from the Ampabame Lorry Station in Kumasi heading to Afrancho, where they stabbed her multiple times and made away with her tricycle.

The suspects have been identified as Peter Nchor Asadigina (21) and Mudasel Dramani (19). They were arrested at Hansua in the Bono East Region.

Items retrieved from the suspects are one number plate with registration number M-26-AE 2047, eight (8) mobile phones, three (3) SIM cards, one (1) MTN MiFi device, a bunch of keys, two (2) lighters, and a jacknife cover.
