Some years ago I caught a thief on my cassava farm, in Winneba. Simpa Panyin had cultivated this farm, prior to leaving for the University of Ghana, and my senior brother, Tutu (Enoch Kojo Annan), had struggled with what to do with the regular stealing of the cassava while I was away. One day (while on holiday), at about 2am, Tutu and I had laid ambush near the farm, in anticipation of any thief that might come around.
