Lois
Abena
Koranteng,
a
24-year-old
graduate
of
the
Kwame
Nkrumah
University
of
Science
and
Technology
(KNUST)
traveled
with
her
boss
and
a
driver
to
Takoradi
for
a
business
trip
on
June
8,
2024.
She
had
spoken
to
her
family
members
on
the
trip
with
hopes
of
returning
home
after
her
activities.
Sadly,
a
phone
call
came
through
the
following
day
to
the
family
indicating
Lois
Abena
Koranteng,
the
last
born
of
a
family
of
three
had
passed
under
bizarre
circumstances.
“She
was
working
with
an
energy
company,
they
mostly
travel
to
Takoradi
and
other
places
on
Weekends
for
business.
We
spoke
to
her
on
the
weekend
before
leaving,
around
5:30
am
the
following
day,
we
had
a
phone
call
that
our
sister
had
been
found
dead
in
the
swimming
pool
of
the
hotel
where
they
were
lodging.
They
had
sent
her
lifeless
body
to
the
hospital
and
police
had
started
investigations
when
close
family
members
reported
to
the
scene”,
a
brother
of
the
deceased,
Aaron
Koranteng
told
Nhyiraba
Paa
Kwesi
Simpson,
the
host
of
Connect
FM’s
Omanbapa
Morning
Show
in
an
interview.
It
is
unknown
how
Lois,
who
had
checked
into
her
hotel
room
to
sleep
after
the
evening
of
arrival
ended
up
at
the
swimming
pool.
Information
indicates
that
the
family
was
later
informed
that
the
deceased
came
out
of
her
hotel
room
around
midnight
to
swim
in
the
pool.
“Her
boss
told
us
that
she
came
to
her
hotel
around
midnight
and
decided
to
use
the
swimming
pool”,
he
indicated.
The
question
on
the
lips
of
many
is
how
she
was
allowed
to
use
the
swimming
pool
at
midnight?
An
autopsy
conducted
by
the
police
revealed
no
blood
stains
or
cuts
on
any
part
of
her
body.
Unfortunately,
the
hotel
authorities
have
been
unable
to
provide
CCTV
footage
of
the
incident.
They
claim
CCTV
cameras
in
the
hotel
were
also
not
functioning.
“Last
Monday,
we
engaged
the
police
and
upon
request,
the
body
was
released
to
Korle-Bu
where
we
all
witnessed
the
autopsy.
But
we
are
yet
to
receive
the
final
report
as
a
family
since
the
police
are
using
it
for
their
investigations”,
he
added.
