A 26-year-old gold miner died after walls of a mine collapsed and caved in at Yamo Oloko village, Bondo sub-county.

Area assistant chief Michael Osare, said the deceased -William Ochieng’ Juma-sought shelter inside the mine when it started raining. But shortly after, it collapsed trapping him inside.

“It was until this morning that his body was discovered when his wife went to ask the colleagues of his whereabouts after he failed to return home,” he said. The body was moved to Bondo sub-county hospital mortuary.
