YEN.com.gh has landed on a rather sad and heartbreaking video of three brothers who allegedly got drowned hours to their big brother’s wedding.

In the video by Myjoyonline.com, the three boys together with another brother were said to have arrived from Kumasi to attend their brother’s wedding but before the event, decided to go “look” at the sea.

Perhaps, being their first time seeing the sea, the four brothers wanted to have a feel of it by swimming, but unfortunately, could not attend the wedding anymore because they got drowned.

One of them was saved by a lifeguard, and he gave an account on how his three brothers got drowned.

According to him, he saw them going far from the shore as they were so happy enjoying their swimming session.

However, he realized that they kept going far and when he tried to call them to come closer, they ignored his calls.

Soon after, the three brothers started shouting and signaling for help, but they were too far to be rescued.

According to the rescued brother, the lifeguard attempted rescuing all three of them, but he realised that he was unable to do so because his own life was in danger.

Sadly, all three brothers have drowned and their bodies nowhere to be found. Also speaking in the video, the big brother of the three dead brothers revealed that he received the distressing call from the beach that his brothers were drowned.
