Journalist who exposed soccer corruption in Ghana shot dead

Ghanaian journalist Ahmad Hussein-Suale was killed in a drive-by shooting near his home Wednesday. Two men on a motorcycle pulled up next to Hussein-Suale near the Accra suburb of Madina while he was driving home. He died instantly after being shot twice in the neck and the chest.  Ahmad was apart of a group of investigative journalists who had recently released a documentary on the corruption and extensive history of bribery in African soccer. He had been receiving death threats since the documentary's release which caused the head of the Ghana Football Association to step down.
