GAF
The Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) has maintained six people have been confirmed dead after Wednesday's stampede.
After reporting the death toll, Channel One TV later noted six more dead from those taken to 37 Military Hospital for emergency treatment.
On Facebook, GAF challenged the report.
"Reference the unfortunate incident that occurred at El-Wak sports stadium this morning, 12 Nov 25, concerning the recruitment exercise, the death toll remains 6," the armed forces' verified page said.
"The public should treat any other reportage as false," GAF cautioned.
"The Ghana Armed Forces will keep updating the general public of any developments," they assured.
