Kwabena Peprah, a member of the Wanderlust Ghana team trying to journey from Accra to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, has revealed that they were victims of a robbery.
On Friday, 27th September 2024, Kwame Peprah revealed in a Facebook post that they were robbed in Krefeld, Germany, during the 13th day of their trip to Dubai.
He mentioned that the thieves forcefully entered the Tacoma, one of the vehicles used for their trip, and fled with some of their possessions, which included their cash and maybe their travel papers.
“I was dressing up when Saka knocked on my door that the receptionist had called him. The Tacoma has been burgled. Someone smashed the front window and took lots of stuff, including my wallet and possibly Kwame’s passport,” he wrote.
Kwabena Peprah also mentioned that the robbery could impact their trip since if Kwame lost his passport, it would be the end of the line for him.
“We are not allowed to touch the car before the police have had their turn, and so at the moment, I’m sitting in a German police station waiting to file a report and go through the processes.
“If Kwame’s passport was in the car, I’m sure we can get a new one issued at the embassy in Berlin, but the trip may be over for him because the other visas needed along the route will not be easy to reissue.”
Kwame, in a video shared by Asaase Radio, confirmed that his passport was in the Tacoma, indicating that it might be the end of the road for him on their journey by road to Dubai.
“Our car has been broken into in the parking garage, the Tacoma has been broken into. I’m now going into the car to see what has happened with it.
