Amasaman township in the Ga West District of the Greater Accra Region was thrown into a state of shock on Farmers’ Day, [Friday, December 1, 2017], following the death of three children.
The children who were between the ages of 10 and 13 drowned while swimming in an abandoned dugout close to road construction firm, Sonitra.
The Amasaman police confirmed the news and indicated that they were conducting further investigations.
An eyewitness, Kwesi Adamu, told journalists that two bodies were recovered as of Saturday morning and that a search party was hunting for the last body.
According to him, two of the victims ignored an advice of a third colleague not to swim, leading to the tragic news.
