However, the duo that drowned, according to the rescuer, were returning from Kete Krachi, the municipal capital, to their island communities on a fishing boat after the boat they were travelling on abandoned them on another island due to a storm.
“They said that they were passing through Kotoku because they needed to alight one passenger there. But because it was late at night, they bypassed the community before they realised it.
“So they divided to curve to go back and drop the passenger so it was in the process that that he lost control of the boat and it capsized,” he narrated.
Meanwhile, the canoe’s rider, who is said to be a fisherman, has survived.
