TMA reopens daycare centre after microlight-aircraft crash
Tema Metropolitan Assembly (TMA) reopened the Community One No. 3 Daycare Centre after a one-month closure following the microlight aircraft crash on the school's premises. The aircraft crashed on March 16, 2026, resulting in the death of two brothers on board.
Madam Ebi Bright, the Tema Metropolitan Chief Executive (MCE), welcomed the pupils back to school and said the reopening signified more than a return to the classroom, describing it as "a comprehensive reset of the city's approach to public safety and emergency preparedness." Madam Bright announced a new directive to designate schools, hospitals, and government institutions as high-priority security zones. She explained that the decision followed observations that existing safety measures were inadequate during the recent aviation incident, which highlighted vulnerabilities in the city's emergency response protocols and the need for enhanced security in critical areas.
Madam Bright assured parents and guardians that the emotional and physical well-being of pupils remained a top priority, adding that new safety protocols and shared responsibility measures had been introduced to ensure a secure learning environment. The reopening ceremony was attended by the Minister for Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs, the Minister for Gender, Children and Social Protection, the Tema Metropolitan Director of Education, traditional leaders, and other stakeholders.
