The ceremony is expected to be held under strict COVID-19 protocols and is strictly by invitation.
A government delegation is expected in Apam to support the bereaved families lay their children to rest.
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has already donated an amount of GH¢36,000 to the bereaved families.
This was done when the President commiserated with the bereaved families through the Minister for fisheries.
