20 people have been confirmed dead and 30 others injured at the Kintampo Waterfall in the Brong Ahafo Region where a tree has fallen off the top of the waterfall to the ground.Also,many were feared trapped in the incident.According to reports,a terrible storm caused a huge tree on top of the waterfall to drop down the ground of the fall where revelers were swimming

The deceased/victims believed to be mostly students from the Wenchi Methodist Secondary School were on an excursion to the famous waterfall at the time of the incident. The Kintampo Police, which confirmed the late Sunday afternoon incident said the injured have been transferred to the Kintampo Municpal Hospital for medical attention.

Rip to the dead. If u investigate further you'll find out that the school didn't give permission to these students to go to the waterfall. They probably sneaked out of school. Obey ur teachers/parents so ur days may be long. God does not lie.

Didn't you read the part where it was specifically stated that they were on excursion or you don't know the meaning of excursion?

Try and reason with your head pls. Its obvious the muddy water was caused by the earth which the huge tree displaced when uprooted.

Waterfalls not fun during the raining or stormy weather. .

One of the Student who did not go to the excursion send the Storm .

The Gorvernment negligence to tourist safety caused it

The river Goddess was pissed of when Nana and Muntari sneaked to the back of the tree to have quickie
