London, UK — A solemn prayer gathering was held at the exact location in Tottenham where Kobi, a 22‑year‑old Ghanaian young man, was tragically stabbed to death. The emotional ceremony brought together family members, friends, community leaders, and local residents who came to honour his memory and call for peace.
The prayer service was led by Archbishop Frimpong Manson Samanhyia BEM, a respected figure within the Ghanaian and wider African community in the UK. His message centred on healing, unity, and the urgent need to protect young people from the rising tide of violence affecting London’s communities.
The coverage was presented by Juliet Denteh for Omegahause Community News, capturing the raw emotion, grief, and solidarity expressed by those in attendance. Many described Kobi as a bright, warm‑hearted young man whose life was cut short far too soon.
Community members used the gathering not only to mourn but also to call for stronger support systems, increased youth engagement, and collaborative efforts to prevent further loss of life.
The vigil stands as a powerful reminder of the human cost of knife crime and the importance of community-led responses in moments of tragedy.
Omega TV UK will continue to follow developments and support conversations aimed at safeguarding young people across London.
