Community Youth in Brofoyedu Recover Suspected Black Box from Crashed Helicopter and hands over to investigating team.crashed Helicopter
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

 

A group of community youth in Brofoyedu has discovered what is believed to be the black box of the military helicopter that tragically crashed yesterday, claiming the lives of several high-profile officials and security personnel.

The suspected flight data recorder was promptly handed over to the official investigation team on the ground.

This vital find is expected to assist aviation authorities in determining the cause of the crash.

The Ashanti Regional Minister, Dr. Frank Amoakohene, confirmed the recovery during a visit to the family of one of the deceased.

 

In a statement shared on his Facebook page, the Minister expressed appreciation to the youth of Brofoyedu for their vigilance, cooperation, and sustained support since the incident occurred.

“We commend the courageous youth of Brofoyedu for their swift response and continued assistance. Their discovery and responsible action could prove critical to the ongoing investigations,” the Minister noted. He further stated that the investigation team will examine and confirm the authenticity of the black box and assess whether its data remains intact.

The helicopter crash, which has drawn national attention and sorrow, claimed the lives of several distinguished Ghanaians, including former Ashanti Regional Minister Hon. Dr. Samuel Sarpong and NADMO Deputy Director-General Samuel Aboagye, both natives of the Ashanti Region.

Investigations into the cause of the crash are ongoing.

Officials described the recovery as a significant step forward. “The device will be instrumental in determining the cause of the accident,” said a senior military official.

In the aftermath, Ghana declared three days of national mourning. Flags fly at half‑mast, and a high‑level delegation is engaging with grieving families. President John Mahama has suspended official engagements, and parliament and political parties have issued heartfelt condolences, declaring the crash a national .

As the investigation proceeds, the nation awaits the black box findings, hoping the data will shed light on the cause be it mechanical failure, human error, or environmental factors and guide future aviation safety protocols.
