A retired teacher of Accra Academy, identified as Mr. Darpaah, has tragically lost his life after a fence wall collapsed on him at his residence in Djamang, within the Weija-Gbawe Municipality.
The unfortunate incident occurred following heavy downpours that triggered widespread flooding across parts of the municipality.
According to reports, the intense rainfall weakened the structural integrity of a perimeter fence wall at Mr. Darpaah’s residence. The wall suddenly gave way and collapsed on him, causing fatal injuries before emergency responders could rescue him.
Mr. Darpaah, a respected pensioner and former tutor at Accra Academy, was widely admired for his dedication to education and service to the community. News of his passing has plunged residents of Djamang and members of the Accra Academy alumni fraternity into mourning.
