Mr. Abdul-Rahman Harruna Attah, Editor of the Accra Daily Mail is alive. Since last week stories have been circulating that the editor had been assassinated.
Well-wishers who called the editor’s home to enquire were relieved when the editor himself answered the phone. But as the saying goes, “there’s no smoke without fire.”
A very close friend of Mr. Attah, a businessman was shot by armed robbers last week. Luckily he survived the attempt on his life and was hospitalized for a while at the Police Hospital. Mr. Attah had been with him earlier in the evening, about two hours before the incident.
Secondly, an uncle of Mr. Attah who also bears the family surname of Attah died from natural causes around the same time last week and was buried at the Awudome Cemetery The editor was present for the burial of his uncle. Perhaps the mix of the two unrelated tragic incidents triggered the public interest in the editor’s wellbeing for which he expresses gratitude to all those who called to express concern.
