A man believed to be in his mid-60s has died after he was attacked by a swarm of bees in Kpandai in the Northern Region on Sunday afternoon, December 14, 2025.

The tragic incident occurred at the Bowmarie Resort shortly after the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) held a town hall meeting with branch executives ahead of the December 30 parliamentary rerun.

Eyewitnesses said the bees suddenly swarmed onto the road near the venue, causing pedestrians and motorists to flee in panic. The deceased, who was riding a motorbike towards the Kpandai township, reportedly rode into the swarm and was attacked.
