A native of Denkyira-Obuasi in the Central Region called Kojo Duku is alleging that the murder of Captain Maxwell Mahama was a long time plan hatched by the galamseyers and the Assembly man of the area to eliminate him.
According to Kojo Duku, the galamseyers and the Assembly man felt threatened as the lynched Captain had come to stop them from their galamsey operations and so they decided to label him as an armeded robber in order to get support from the residents to carry out their heinous crime.
Speaking on Neat FM’s 'Ghana Mo Ntie' Morning Show, Kojo Duku revealed that the illegal miners and the Assemblyman had planned to kill him a long time ago and so they ambushed him with the help of a woman who was positioned on the road where Captain Mahama always jog.
“They intentionally plant the woman on the road to shout out that he is an armed robber and they beat him to death. It is not true that they killed because they suspected him to be an armed robber; they planned to end his life and those behind the plan are the galamseyers and the Assembly man,” he narrated.
When asked to prove his claim, Kojo Duku insisted he was in Denkyira-Obuasi three days ago and with the help of his sister who is still in town, he has been briefed well enough to know how Captain Mahama’s life was sniffed out.
However, he said his uncle who is the chief of the town has been forced out as well as the queen mother killed, and also the police station of the town was burnt overnight by the galamseyers sometime ago because the presence of the police was a threat to their operations in the area.
“There is no law in the town and everybody does whatever they want. There is no chief, queen mother and police station in the town. The Assemblyman gave the order for them to kill Captain Mahama,” he asserted.
He narrated again that “The military officer gave a warning shot and said he is an officer but that angered the galamseyers saying they have been looking for him.”

Ghanaians dont like reading at all. For crying out loud the man said he was there 3 days ago and the sister briefed him about the incidence.
You are Otooo-bele". If there is a coup now, your head will roll first. Fuuuuuuuuuliiiiiiish man
so if Duku knew all these, what was he doing? Why didnt he inform the police about the said plot. I think he must also be arrested. I believe he is one of those people who lynched the captain and now wants to redeem himself and deassociate himself from any harmful sanction.
I thought as much. This people are so wicked and have robbed the family and Ghana an important person. What have you people gained from killing such a handsome young father. Oh oh oh. Sika nti. Assembly man have plotted and succeeded with the help of a wicked ***barred word*** lady . God please let there be justice. I will continue to pray and fast for justice.Max is like one of my nephews so it really hurts.i have sleepless night since he died. Why are you people so wicked? Hmmmm Now you will also die the same way u killed Max and that woman needs a big lesson b4 killed as way. I will come to Ghana cos of this ***barred word***.
you are really stu--p--i-d person. people of you are not fit to live but not the innocent army officer.
NANA ADDO IS NOT FIT TO RULE THIS COUNTRY. THERE WILL BE A COUP SOON. THE NATIONAL PROMISES PARTY IS NOT GOOD AT GOVERNANCE. WE DO NOT NEED NANA---EVERYDAY KILLINGS WHY? THE BLOOD THEY SHED IS HUNTING THE WHOLE COUNTRY.
I BELIEVE THIS ACCOUNT BEST THAN ALL THAT THEY HAVE COOKED UP. THIS MAKES MORE SENSE TO ME THAT THE NOBLE MAN WAS PURPOSELY MURDERED BY THESE BLOOD THIRSTY F--0000--1111S AND NOTHING ELSE. GOD WILL NOT SPARE THEM AT ALL FOR TAKING SOMEONE'S LIFE AWAY IN SUCH A HORRIFIC MANNER FOR NOTHING AT ALL.
We are sitting on a time bomb if these soldiers are not allowed to let out their anger. The whole incident if carefully analysed, points to this fact. They never imagined the death will travel this way. It was indeed a planed thing. The government needs to step up its game if indeed it is burnt on stopping galamsey. It is just the beginning. There is so much anger in the heart of Ghanaians especially the soldiers. And if no action as it has always been in such instances, then Ghanaians would have been short changed. And trust you me, people especially the soldiers cannot be predicted. I KEEP ASKING, IF THIS TOWN AND ITS INHABITANTS SEEMS TO BE A HEADACHE AS IT IS TURNING OUT TO BE, WHY NOT ALLOW THE SOLDIERS TO DESCEND ON THEM AND PUT THE PLACE IN ORDER? We are sitting on a time bomb....and i beg that the anger boiling within theirs hearts are properly managed. Please allow them to teach this people a lesson, if not this will not end but will just be the beginning. ................................................................. Demonstrations carried out to fix roads has become a norm, where people go on demo and have their roads fixed. Seizure of toll booths is gradually staying and we experience every 4 or 8 years. Because no clear message is being sent in the strongest sense of it, it keeps happening. Galamsey is all over the country, once the others realize nothing happens there, we are doomed.
THE TOWN IS CURSED. I WILL NEVER LET ANY MEMBER OF MY FAMILY MARRY FROM THAT TOWN
