A 16-year-old girl has been arrested for setting her boyfriend’s room ablaze after an argument in the Central Region, Ghana.
According to reports, “the 16-year-old visited her boyfriend at his corn mill shop to demand money.”
“The boyfriend refused to give her money because she had allegedly been unfaithful at some point in their affair,” reports added.
The boyfriend proceeded to end the relationship with her.
Very upset about the situation, the teenager went to the man’s house and set the place on fire, after which she returned to her workplace.
She eventually confessed to the crime following her arrest.
The Assembly Member for New Nkusukum, Alhaji Alli Amoah Abubakuri, condemned the act and urged teenagers to avoid such destructive behaviours in romantic relationships.
She is currently assisting the Police with their investigation, following her apprehension by community members.
