The lifeless body of Abuwa 

Barely 72 hours after a contract staff of the Volta River Authority in Bolgatanga got electrocuted while at post, Residents of Tidonsolgo , a suburb of Bolgatanga woke up early this morning to witness yet another tragic death of a young mason, Nyaaba Abuwa, aged  28. Abuwa committed suicide at the Abuwa cemetery around the area.  As at the time Radio Ghana got to the scene, the young man was found hanged on an air-bony tree in the cemetery, an area  just close to the Baptist Basic School and about 200 metres away from his residence. A teacher at the school, who spoke to Radio Ghana on condition of anonymity, said he reported very early for school only to find both residents and students gathered around the scene.  He believed that the incident might have happened last night. Some relatives of the deceased who also spoke to the media were perturbed and could not unravel the circumstances leading to the horrific  action of late Abuwa. Meanwhile, the police had conveyed the body back to their custody and had invited family members for investigations. This brings to two the number of unfortunate death incidents recorded within the week in Bolgatanga.
