Mr. John Agyekum, a business magnate and the CEO of famed Ghanaian meat company Johnny’s Food And Meat Complex (Jfamco), has died.

Although the cause of his death is unknown, a source said that he had been ill for a short time.

He was 65 years old at the time.

Mr. Agyekum developed the Jfamco abattoir and cold storage facilities in Medina, Accra, in 2011.

After working as a cleaner in Germany for years, he returned to Ghana as a German-trained butcher.

Many Ghanaian businesses looked up to him, and his company has delivered high-quality meat to people of Medina and Accra as a whole.

Friends and family members have reacted to the news of his death.

The Adom TV’s Badwam host described the late John Agyekum as his brother, friend and boss.
