The search operation for victims trapped in the Akyem Wenckye galamsey pit collapse in the Denkyembour district of the Eastern Region has ended without finding any bodies.
The National Disaster Management Organization (NADMO) worked with residents to search for individuals trapped in the pit, which collapsed several days ago.
Despite earlier concerns and efforts to locate potential victims, the search concluded without any bodies being recovered.
The cause of the collapse is believed to be linked to illegal mining activities in the area.
Authorities are investigating the incident to determine the next steps. Residents remain concerned about the safety risks associated with galamsey operations in the region.
Speaking to some aggrieved youth of Akyem Wenckye they noted that the youth helped in rescuing efforts immediately after the incident happened.
They urged the general public to refrain from labeling the people of Wenchi as bad people.
