A dad-of-three drowned after falling from his jet ski in Africa, a coroner has said. Iwan Gwyn, 49, is originally from Llanaelhaearn in north Wales but had lived in Ghana for more than nine years.
An inquest into his death, held in Caernarfon, heard that Mr Gwyn died as a result of "asphyxiation or drowning" with a "blunt head injury" as a secondary factor. He was said to be spending time with his friends and family at the time of the incident.
Businessman Mr Gwyn decided to take his jet ski out on the Volta River in Alorkpem shortly before 6pm on December 30. At first, he could be seen riding up and down the river but then the family noticed that they could no longer see him.
