The lifeless body of a five-year-old girl has been discovered in Adom, a suburb of Atebubu in the Bono East Region, three days after she went missing.
The deceased, identified as Makimor Yagyeger, was found floating in stagnant water.
Eyewitnesses who first spotted the body quickly alerted the Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS), which carried out a recovery operation to retrieve her remains.
Atebubu GNFS Station Officer 1, Kabori Sakari, confirmed the incident to Adom News and cautioned the public to remain vigilant, especially around water bodies during the rainy season.
Residents expressed shock and grief over the tragedy and are urging authorities to act swiftly to uncover the circumstances behind the child’s mysterious death. Some have called for a full-scale investigation, alleging possible foul play and demanding justice for the young girl.
The body has since been handed over to the police for further investigation and autopsy.
