Three children who reportedly went missing on Saturday, October 3, 2026 have been found dead inside a parked vehicle at Koblimahagu Zuo in the Tamale Metropolis, leaving residents in shock and mourning.
The children, aged three, five and eight, were found on Monday morning. A search had been under way since they went missing, along with an appeal to the public for any information on where they were.
