Police investigate drowning of girl, 15, in stream at Wovenu 

The incident has renewed concerns about the safety of children around rivers and streams in the Tadzewu area, coming barely a week after another drowning claimed the life of a 15-year-old boy in the nearby Agortor Stream.

The Ghana Police Service has launched an investigation into the drowning of a 15-year-old girl in the Dada Stream near the Wovenu Senior High Technical School (WOSSET) at Tadzewu in the Ketu North Municipality of the Volta Region.

Mr Lawrence Teve, Unit Committee Secretary for the Tadzewu Electoral Area, told the Ghana News Agency (GNA) that the three girls had gone to the stream to swim before moving to a nearby drinking spot to relax.
