A former boss of Data Bank, Ken Ofori-Atta, was attacked by unidentified gunmen on Sunday night at his residence. Mr. Ofori-Atta, who was in the company of his cousin, Edward Akufo-Addo, escaped unhurt.
Narrating the ordeal to Citi News, Mr. Ofori-Atta said �it�s wonderful to be alive and thank God for that.�
He said his cousin left his ipad and was expecting him to come for it at that fateful moment. �At around 11.30 pm I heard the gate opened and I went downstairs to take the ipad� I turned to the left to the gate and I saw somebody holding the security guard and another guy walked in towards me with a handkerchief covering his mouth and with a short gun.
�He shot in the air. I was standing and quite perplexed at what was unfolding before us� Suddenly, he walked towards the gate to his colleague and that was it.�
Mr. Ofori-Atta ruled out robbery, but said he has made a formal complaint to the Cantonments police to carry on with investigations.
He said �nothing was taken and there was no assault.�
This is the third high profile gun attack in barely three weeks. The first was on the chairman of the Public Accounts Committee, Albert Kan-Dapaah, and a former General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Nana Ohene Ntow.
