The wife of Adams Mahama, the late Upper East chairman of the NPP, Hajia Zinabu Adams, today [Tuesday] testified as a witness for the prosecution in the case where Gregory Afoko, brother of the suspended NPP National Chairman is being accused of murdering Adams Mahama.
According to Hajia Adams who was the first witness to be called in the case, her husband returned home after he had left earlier in the day to inspect a hotel project he was constructing.
He returned at 11 PM lamenting and crying for help in his vehicle.

She further told the court in her quest to help him out of the car she sustained some minor burns also when she came into contact her husband.
Charges against Afoko
