A 42-year-old fetish priest and his messenger are currently in the grips of the Akuse police for allegedly stealing tilapia at Kpong in the Eastern region.

Natervie and his accomplice, Francis Wormewu, popularly known as Taller, 47, were caught by Dr Jerryson Gidisu, owner of the farm, on Monday at about 10:30 pm.
