Terry's final trip to Teshie

Terry's body was discovered on the morning of Thursday, September 24, 2026, days after his disappearance alarmed those close to him.

family member who spoke to CDR Africa on X confirmed the find and noted that there were signs that an attempt had been made to set the body alight before it was discovered, though that effort reportedly did not succeed.

The phone dealer had travelled to Teshie to complete what was described as a business transaction.

Before he stopped responding, Terry sent a WhatsApp message to a close friend stating that he had been "set up" and shared his location. That location was later deleted from the conversation.

A relative explained that a woman had allegedly spent a considerable amount of time cultivating what appeared to be a genuine friendship with Terry.

This was described as a calculated pattern in which someone dealing in valuable goods is befriended over weeks or months and then invited to a location. Once there, the visitor's belongings are taken, and in many cases the person does not leave unharmed.
