Panic erupted in the farming community of Kwadwamena in the Asante Akim North Municipality on Wednesday following an aggressive invasion by swarms of bees that forced residents to abandon their homes and seek refuge in nearby bushes.
Eyewitness accounts indicate that the swarm descended on the village without warning, attacking residents and livestock.
The sudden invasion prompted widespread fear, as terrified inhabitants, including women, children, and the elderly, fled into surrounding thickets and farms for safety.
Some residents also sought refuge in nearby villages, leaving the community virtually deserted throughout the day.
