The Ashanti Regional Coordinating Council (ARCC) is appealing to residents in Adansi–Akrofuom who may have removed items from the crash site of the military helicopter on August 6 to return them immediately. The council says even small components—such as metals, screws, circuit boards, and drives—are needed to aid ongoing investigations.
In a statement dated August 9, 2025, signed by Ashanti Regional Minister Dr. Frank Amoakohene, the ARCC announced that individuals who voluntarily return any retrieved items by close of business on Monday, August 11, 2025, will be eligible for a cash reward . However, those found in possession of such materials after the deadline will be deemed criminals and could face prosecution under the full rigours of the law.
The ARCC encourages anyone with recovered items to submit them to local authorities, including Unit Committees, Assembly Members, Municipal or District Chief Executives, or members of the investigative team stationed at the scene.
This effort comes in the wake of the tragic crash on August 6, 2025, in which all eight occupants—including Defence Minister Dr. Edward Omane Boamah and Environment Minister Dr. Ibrahim Murtala Muhammed—lost their lives.
