Former Dome-Kwabenya Member of Parliament, Sarah Adwoa Safo, is receiving medical treatment at the 37 Military Hospital in Accra after sustaining injuries in a reported shooting incident, according to her Special Assistant, Dr Emmanuel Y. Boakye.
The incident, which has generated widespread public attention, reportedly occurred during a confrontation at the residence of her younger brother, Israel Kwadwo Safo Akofena. Reports indicate that approximately 45 bullets were allegedly fired at her vehicle during the altercation.
A video circulating on social media is said to show the former legislator being transported in an ambulance shortly after the incident.
Speaking on GhanAkoma on Akoma 87.9 FM, Dr Boakye confirmed that Adwoa Safo has undergone two surgical procedures and may be flown abroad for specialised medical treatment.
“Adwoa has undergone two surgeries and is expected to be flown abroad for further treatment to prevent further damage to her face,” he disclosed.
According to medical sources, the former MP remains under close observation at the 37 Military Hospital, where doctors continue to monitor her condition following the surgeries.
While Dr Boakye did not reveal the specific country being considered for the next phase of treatment, he indicated that arrangements are being explored to ensure her full recovery.
The shooting incident has sparked concern among the public and political observers, with many calling for a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the event.
Authorities are yet to release a comprehensive official account of the incident, although investigations are expected to continue.
Further updates are anticipated as medical personnel and security agencies provide additional information on both Adwoa Safo’s condition and the ongoing investigation into the shooting.
