The Sekondi Circuit Court has sentenced a 36-year-old Nigerian national, Stanley Afaku, to 10 years in prison for armed robbery. The verdict was delivered on Monday, June 9, 2025, by Her Honour Naa Amerley Akowuah.

According to a statement from the Western Regional Police Command, Afaku was arrested after an intelligence-led operation conducted by the Police Intelligence Directorate. He was charged in connection with a robbery that occurred on February 23, 2025, at the Effia-Nkwanta Regional Hospital in Sekondi.

During the incident, Afaku and his accomplice, identified as Samuel Nickson (also known as Agya Acquah), reportedly attacked Nash Arthur, a security guard at the hospital, at gunpoint. The attackers tied the victim with his shirt, stole his phone, and broke into the hospital’s outpatient department pharmacy, from which they stole a flat-screen television.
