Read the full statement
below :
“On Sunday 6 July 2014 we were
on holiday in the company of
friends and a few acquaintances
on the banks of the Volta River,
shuttling between Peace Holiday
Resort and Aqua Safari Resort at
Ada when we noticed that our
close friend and popular
musician, Castro (known in
private life as Theophilus Tagoe)
had gone missing on the Volta
River together with an
acquaintance, Miss Jane Bandu,
who had apparently hitched a
ride with Castro on a jet ski
rented by Castro.
We have made and we continue
to make every effort to find them.
Several state institutions and
officials have been involved in
the search, including the Marine
Police, the Navy, the Tema
Police Command, the Ada Police
Command, Ada East District
Assembly, local fishermen at Ada
and some traditionalists.
The jet ski on which Castro and
Miss Jane Bandu rode has been
retrieved. However, the two are
yet to be found. We are keeping
hope alive that the two will
eventually be found.
Our prayers and support lie
firmly with Castro and Miss Jane
Bandu and their families. We
pray for strength and fortitude
for all engaged in the search.
And we also call on anyone who
has useful information to assist
in this quest. God bless us all.”
