Meet the bank staff who stole GH1.2 million to buy iPhone 14, car and plane tickets to escape with his girlfriend to Dubai

Emmanuel Sakyi Afriyie is a 25 year old banker who stole from several customers including a dead IGP and a dead judge.

The heartless greedy young man used parts of the money to buy a mobile phone, Iphone 14 Pro Max, a vehicle, Toyota Camry, moved some to his account in another bank and that of his accomplices’ accounts – 17 in total – in various banks and their mobile money accounts.

He bought an airplane ticket and had planned to abscond to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates with his girlfriend

The security agencies moved fast, put a trail on him and arrested him at the Kotoka International Airport on June 4, 2023.

Emmanuel allegedly secretly used a mobile phone to film his boss while she was entering her password and later watched the footage to know the password the boss was using.
