Popular Circle-based phone dealer Nana Yaw Kyere, popularly known as Terry or Dinero, has reportedly been found dead in Teshie, days after he went missing while reportedly travelling to the area for a business transaction.
Kyere’s disappearance had sparked concern among his family, friends, colleagues and fellow phone dealers after he reportedly sent a series of unusual WhatsApp messages to an associate around midnight on Sunday.
According to reports, the phone dealer had travelled from his usual business location at Kwame Nkrumah Circle to Teshie to meet someone in connection with a phone transaction. His family later became concerned after he failed to return home and attempts to reach him proved unsuccessful.
Terry reportedly sent troubling WhatsApp message
One of the most concerning developments before his disappearance was a WhatsApp conversation with a colleague who reportedly works with him at the same phone shop at Circle.
According to the colleague, Terry sent a message around midnight claiming that he had been “set up” by a girl in a room.
He reportedly accompanied the message with a photograph of the room and a location indicating that he was in Teshie.
The colleague reportedly became suspicious because the wording of the messages appeared unusual. He said Terry normally addressed him as “bro”, whereas the person communicating through the phone reportedly used “boy”.
Another message was subsequently sent from Terry’s phone at about 3:00 a.m., allegedly claiming that he had been released and had left the location.
