CCTV footage shows a commercial motorcycle rider fleeing for his life after 2 suspected robbers, one of them armed with a machete, attacked him on a road said to be in Haatso, Accra.
According to Chale News, citing GhanaWeb, the footage was shared on Facebook by One Ghana TV on 2 November 2026. It shows the okada rider travelling at about 3am when 2 young men on another motorcycle intercepted him.
One of the men swung a machete at the rider as he tried to speed away. One of the attackers then grabbed the back of his motorcycle while the other kept attacking him, forcing him to abandon the bike.
The attacker chased the rider on foot, swinging the machete, until the rider escaped into a nearby bush. The 2 suspects then left, one of them riding away on the stolen motorcycle.
It is not clear from the footage whether the rider was injured. No police statement or arrest had been reported at the time of publication, and the suspects have not been identified.
