Thursday, January 20, 2022
was indeed a black Thursday in Ghana.
Thursday as the name in
twi local dialect suggests; “Yawoada”,
means day of pains and sorrows was indeed a no ordinary day in the land of
Apiatsi-Bogoso in the Western region of Ghana. Yesterday was a sorrowful day
for the people of Apiatsi and the people of Ghana at large.
Preliminary investigation
says that a huge truck carrying dynamites from Tarkwa to Chirano mines collided with one tricycle (“Aboboyaa”) which caused the dynamites to
explode.
The Ghana police service
in conjunction with other emergency service providers under took a massive
emergency recovery exercise.
Forensic investigation
says that hundreds of people feared dead while thousands of people are injured
with some on emergency admission at the various hospitals in the Bogoso Municipality.
The Ghana police service
has therefore asked the people of Apiatsi to move out of the town to nearby
towns while recovery efforts are still underway. They also asked the people to
remain calm and assured them of rescuing more of the victims.
We deeply sympathize with
the families and people of Apiatsi for the lost souls.
