Bukom Banku Arrested Over Assualt.

Braimah Kamoko aka Bukom Banku, has been arrested for allegedly assaulting a 65yr old woman over vulgar songs about his wife during the annual "kpashimo" rites in Bukom.

The assault happened after he was notified that the cliques of "Kpashimo" were planning to sing against his fetish wife, Ohua Broni, which led to a confrontation and the subsequent assault.
The woman, Mama Ofoe, is receiving medical attention at the hospital whereas, the boxer in the custody of the Accra Central Police after his arrest on Monday.



‘Kpashimo’ is an annual rite by a group of singers in Ga tradition who every year go round on a procession singing to spite anyone believed to be guilty of a wrongdoing in the year under review. Bukom Banku who has every year supported and even joined in the singing and its rites, decided not to allow the ‘Kpashimo’ party to perform their rites this year because they had intended to sing against the boxer’s fetish priestess wife, Amoah Woyoo known in the fetish realm as Ohua Broni.

Apparently, they refused, which didn't sit well with him, which resulted in the scuffle. The victim went to the Police to report the case, and they in turn, went to Bukom Banku's house to arrest him; eventhough people say it was Bukom who asked the police to come over and help stop the singing.

Well, which ever way, he ended up being arrested.
Not a great way to start the New Year, don't y'all think? Is it just me or are Ghanaian personalities not having the best of 2015?

What are your thoughts on this issue?
