A pregnant woman and several children narrowly escaped death on the morning of Monday, June 2, after a Toyota Hiace vehicle they were travelling in was involved in an accident at Mile 44, along the Koforidua–Adukrom road.
The vehicle, with registration number GT 5160-17, was carrying 15 passengers en route from Ashaiman to Koforidua, on Monday, June 2, when it veered off the road and landed on its side in nearby bushes.
While the exact cause of the accident remains unclear, eyewitnesses confirmed that the pregnant woman and children were unharmed. Several other passengers, however, sustained minor injuries.
Coincidentally, the Eastern Regional Minister, Rita Akosua Awatey, who was travelling on the same route to an official engagement in Odumase, arrived at the scene shortly after the crash. She and her entourage quickly assisted in the rescue efforts.
The Minister’s team also facilitated the immediate transportation of injured passengers to a nearby hospital for medical attention.
Personnel from the Motor Transport and Traffic Directorate (MTTD) of the Ghana Police Service were later called to the scene and have since commenced investigations into the cause of the accident.
