A father stands behind the man who shot his daughter dead. The parent of Philipa Frimpong says Hayford Boateng never meant to kill the social media star. Police arrested Boateng after the gun went off during a June incident in Yeji.
The shooting happened when Boateng pulled his weapon from a car. The gun fired without warning and struck Frimpong in the chest. Her father believes God wanted to take his daughter to heaven that day.
Frimpong used the name Yaa Baby across social media platforms. She had thousands of followers who watched her daily posts. The 22-year-old woman died from her wounds despite medical help.
Boateng sits behind bars with two friends who witnessed the shooting. His own father says prison time will teach his son proper behavior. The family promised to pay for funeral costs as an apology gesture.
People online argue about whether the shooting was planned or accidental. Some support the father's forgiveness of his daughter's killer. Others demand justice and question his public statements defending Boateng.
