The controversial host of the Onua TV Morning Show, Captain Smart, has once again used his position to issue a strong warning, this time to drivers all throughout the country. Captain Smart, who was well-known for his frank remarks and unafraid commentary, didn’t mince words when he advised drivers to drive more responsibly and cautiously.
He addressed the audience directly, stressing the need for drivers to exercise caution and be vigilant, especially on some routes that are more dangerous than others because of their unfavorable conditions. He said that certain highways need to be approached with additional care. These include the Kumasi-Konongo and Konongo-Pokuase roads, as well as all the highways that connect Ghana’s western regions to the Greater Accra Region. He clarified that drivers must lower their speed and keep constant control on certain routes because they are especially prone to accidents.
He sent a direct warning: “Listen! Slow down if you’re traveling from the country’s western corridor to the Greater Accra region. On routes such as Kumasi to Konongo and Konongo to Pokuase, exercise extreme caution. Reduce your speed to 100 km/h or less if you typically drive 200 km/h. Your life is more important, therefore go slowly and avoid hurrying.
Concern over road safety issues in Ghana, especially the state of key roadways, is growing, as seen by Captain Smart’s comments. Despite its firmness, his message stems from a desire to minimize accidents and save lives. In the hopes that his influence might encourage more safe driving, he advised all drivers to put caution first.
