‘I Am a Thief’ – Man Accused of Stealing Plantains and Cassava Paraded Through Town In The Eastern Region
A man accused of stealing plantains, cassava, and other food items in Begoro Christom, located in the Fanteakwa North District of the Eastern Region, was seen being paraded through parts of the town by the individual who claims to own the stolen goods.
In a video shared by Ghana Nkomo on September 10, 2026, the accused is shown carrying the allegedly stolen items on his head as he makes his way through town, presumably to indicate where he intended to take them.

The footage captures a crowd following the suspect, with a man believed to be the owner trailing behind, wielding a cane. The accused can be heard admitting, “I am a thief,” prompting the owner to strike him with the cane and insist he repeat the admission louder.
Typically, such suspects are brought to the police station, but in this instance, the man allegedly victimized opted to display him around the community instead.
Details regarding the specific circumstances of the theft were not revealed in the shared video.
