In other news on YEN.com.gh, one of the rescued boys of the Apam beach drowning saga had been narrating what led to their drowning.

The boy said while he and his friends were swimming, they saw beautiful and attractive ladies approach them.

He said they could not figure out if they were part of the ladies they had gone swimming with, and so they invited them over to join them in swimming.

Just then they saw heavy tidal waves that were beyond normal come to carry some of them away.

He said while the “first batch” of the boys were taken away, the rest of them kept swimming until another powerful wave came for them.

Many people have concluded that the 'strange ladies' in the boy's narration could be mermaids that carried them away to be killed.
