July 31, 2018:

The Tamale High Court in the Northern region has convicted two students to death for killing a pastor in a robbery attack 10 months ago.
The regional state attorney Mr. Quddus Salia who led prosecution said the convicts; Dogyi Kwame and Obio Akwasi, are cousins, both aged 21 and students of Tamale Technical University.
They were arrested in November 2017 after they attacked and killed 65-year-old Ebenezer Ocran, head pastor of End Time Bible Believers Fellowship, Tamale, at his residence in Kumbuyili, an isolated community on the Tamale-Kumbungu road.
They stole a Toyota Highlander vehicle belonging to the deceased after the act and fled.
