Eunice Jacqueline Buah Asomah-Hinneh, the owner of Labianca Company, has passed away.

Asomah-Hinneh’s death came after a brief illness, according to sources referenced by Citi News.

She is survived by a husband, the former Tema Regional Police Commander, Deputy Commissioner of Police Nana Asomah-Hinneh.

She was also a member of the Council of State, serving as the representative of the Western Region.

Prior to that, she served on the Board of Directors of the Ghana Ports and Harbour Authority from 2017 to 2021.

Asomah-Hinneh captured national attention after the Special Prosecutor accused Labianca Company Ltd. of benefitting from reduced tax liabilities due to her influence-peddling.

In August 2022, the Special Prosecutor published a report on underhand dealings at the ports, claiming Labianca Company Ltd, a frozen foods company, had evaded import duties totalling GH¢1.074 million.
