The Ghana Police Service, in partnership with Togolese officials, has captured Adina Akpo Abdou Moudjibou, also referred to as Mohammed Djandjo, a suspect associated with several high-profile armed robberies in the East Legon and Cantonments districts of Accra.
Moudjibou was apprehended in Togo after an INTERPOL red notice was released for his capture.
After his arrest, Moudjibou was sent to Ghana, where he is anticipated to face charges connected to several armed robbery cases.
The Ghana Police Service has conveyed gratitude for the collaboration of the Togolese authorities and reaffirmed its dedication to ensuring that those responsible for such offences face justice.
Speaking at a press briefing in Accra on Saturday, the Director General of the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service, DCOP Lydia Yaako Donkor, confirmed the arrest and extradition of the suspect.
“The GPS has been pursuing a known armed robbery suspect, Adina Akpo Abdou Moudjibou, whose activities have been captured in various CCTV footages and circulated widely on social media,”she said.
She explained that the suspect primarily targeted high-profile individuals residing in elite communities, including East Legon, Cantonments, Ridge, Tesano, Airport Residential Area, and Adjiringano.
“These criminal activities were primarily targeted at high-profile individuals residing in communities such as East Legon, Cantonments, Ridge, Tesano, Airport Residential Area, and Adjiringano within the Greater Accra metropolis between 2022 and 2024,” DCOP Donkor added.
She also recalled a public assurance made by the police in a 2023 social media post:“On 3rd October 2023, you recall that the Ghana Police Service in a Facebook post assured the public that we were actively pursuing this case.”
Following that assurance, the police intensified security operations and intelligence-gathering in the affected areas. Their efforts culminated in a formal operation to retrieve the suspect.
“We are pleased to announce that on Wednesday, 14th May 2025, at approximately 08:30 hours, a five-member delegation from Ghana, led by myself, departed Accra aboard a military aircraft to Lome, Togo, to officially receive suspect Adina Akpo Abdou Moudjibou, who had been arrested and was in the custody of the Togolese authorities,” she stated.
