A tragic accident occurred on Sunday along the Koforidua–Nyamekrom stretch in the Eastern Region, resulting in one fatality and injuries to four individuals.
The collision took place close to the Jehovah’s Witness Church at Nyamekrom and involved two vehicles: an Opel Astra B taxi (registration GS 4492-Z) and a Honda Civic (registration GR 5529-22).
The Assemblyman for the Nyamekrom Electoral Area, Enoch Boahene, narrowly escaped the crash while riding his motorcycle.
He told local journalists that “the taxi driver was speeding and attempted a wrongful overtaking,” which led to a direct collision between the two cars.
The injured parties are currently receiving medical care at both the Eastern Regional Hospital and St. Joseph Hospital in Koforidua.
