GH₵400,000 Momo Theft Under Police Lens in Gold Fraud Case




Accra, March 29, – The Police Professional Standards Bureau (PPSB) is investigating the alleged unauthorised withdrawal of GH₵400,000 from the mobile money account of Kumasi merchant Derrick Okyere Dapaah, alias “Pablo,” linked to a gold robbery scam.

Preliminary reports show that on December 8, 2025, complainant Francis Ayaaba was defrauded during a gold deal near Nsawam. GH₵500,000 in cash and GH₵400,000 via mobile money were paid, but armed men later seized the gold.

Police traced the GH₵400,000 to Dapaah’s accounts and later withdrawals by Abudu Dauda, allegedly acting for Alhaji Ibrahim. Arrests include Dauda, Prince Ofori, goldsmith William Osabotey, and Dapaah, all granted bail. Two suspects, Alex and Alhaji Ibrahim, remain at large.

Court proceedings resume April 29, 2026.
