Beatrice Owarewa Siaw, a New Patriotic Party (NPP) Council of Patrons member and aspiring parliamentary candidate for Mampong, has died, according to a close source.
Siaw, popularly known as Nana Yaa, died at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) after making plans to travel to China, the source confirmed on Saturday night.
Concern grew after she became unreachable, prompting the source to contact her uncle, who also said he could not reach her.
It later emerged that Siaw had driven herself to KATH, where she was asked about the purpose of her visit and complained of body weakness. She was reportedly pronounced dead shortly afterwards.
Her vehicle has since been conveyed to a police station as family members await further information and make arrangements following her death.
