A strange calabash has been discovered in an over 70-year-old tree after it was cut down at Tema Community two.
A resident whose name was only given as Kwabena decided to cut down the tree which was becoming a threat to human life.
Kwabena told Adom News the roots of the tree were extending and growing into the ground.
He explained he contacted the appropriate authorities to secure a permit before cutting down the tree and afterward, hired a chainsaw operator.
After falling the tree, Kwabena said he decided to cut them into smaller logs and that was when the calabash which was rotting away was found.
Eyewitnesses rushed to the tree to catch a glimpse and also take pictures, however, the calabash vanished into thin air before they could even complete their photoshoots.
