This trucks park without warning triangle so is difficult to see them at night. Metro mass buses are worst culprit.
Unfortunately not the first nor going to be the last. This is happening one too many and yet nobody is held accountable. May their souls rest in peace. God have mercy on us all.
Oh George, say that again and again and again. It's absolutely stupid. It has happened so many times. Nobody talks about it.Yet,there are mps,ministers, presidents, bishops, imams and people who claim to be prominent people i ...

what's wrong with your thinking? do you think is right for people to leave a broken car at the shoulders of roads? come to Europe and see if you can abandon your car for about an hour.
Your comments portray your ignorance. You are one of the reasons why politicians steal so much from Ghana.People like you will always be taken for a ride because they result to use their minds. I will not comment on your asse ...

Koo Nimo, you have a very good point. Is this already being done in Ghana? The government or the IGP or the Minister of Internal Affairs must make laws for the police to enforce.
There are laws already. Government has procure towing vehicles for MTTU to quickly tow break down vehicles on the way emmdiately it is reported. I have seen these at many places in the country.
A broken down articulated truck would not pay the Police their GHC5.00 bribe so its not worth anyone being bothered with.
I totally agree with you. Systems and processes to minimize risks should be applied. Moreover, many of our drivers are wreckless. Unfortunately, the Police are too focused on collecting bribes.
Wise of you Koo Nimo.unlike others blaming the president.
A faulty articulated car parking on shoulder Of a Road for almost one week?. Did the Police see it ?. Didnt Road safety commission see it? Now that death has been recorded, im sure it Has been Tower now.
And did anybody report it. Proactivenes is not part of our lives. Every time we often say ' by God's grace' ....
He needs human blood for rituals.
How can somebody seating somewhere far away and not driving cause accident. Leave the president alone and think of your own safety when on the road. Safety and police officers do your job.
Thanks bro
RIP
may Allah hav mercy on them
We are not serious as people in Ghana here. People die like chicken but I don't know if the authority take a note. I travel across the world including Africa I never see a country which people die like Ghana.

Most car accident in the world are caused by young boys and man from 18 to 28, and guess who are driving these minivans and trotros?
Useless people!In other part of the world broken vehicles are instantly removed from roadside.
Drinking and driving is the major cause of the acidents let the police have device to check and offenders behind bars
Maranatha, Lord Jesus come to redeem us and end this life of misery on earth. Am not happy here anymore. May the departed souls rest in peace. I hope they were prepared.
The sprinter driver is an Ashanti man and I suspect otumfuo to b behind this.
Stupid Ashanti's!
Lord have mercy in Ghana
Oh!!!!! gracious LORD
That so called Orlando is the biggest fool in UK
Why can,t we learn from our mistakes, killing our innocent people, what are we doing as a nation. It a car develop mecanical fault, why ca,t be towed awat immediately. God help Ghana.
Aahhh ! Olivia , this is infantile and nonsensical. Why blame our President for this accident ? .
My goodness ! you need to go for check up at Pantang Psychiatry Hospital .wai.
Olivia stop the politic these are lives we talking about. When hundreds of pple died in Accra stadium under kuffour does it mean he was evil
Grow up
Oh God please have mercy on our country Ghana please save us from all this accident n deliver our country from very satanic attack Amen

If police patrol team had warned the driver to put a warning triangle sign ,this accident wouldn't have happened.I blame Ghana police service on this sad particular accident.

Pls am a nurse at wassa akropong all the bodies were carried to wassa Akropon government hospital and not Dunkwa hospital.thanks
People will die cause the police in Ghana and our politicians don't have common sense to conduct checks on our highways, imagine truck being parked for weeks,this time around we should blame ourselves but not god
May their souls rest in peace. I think all road users must take caution and stop claiming ownership when using the road which does not belong to any of us.
I like this one. I have never heard our President supporting reckless driving. Pls let him alone
Foolish reportage! When did the accident happen? Date and time please.
SIMPLE TOW TRUCKS ARE SCARCE UNDER JOHN DRAMANI MAHAMA MEGA-BORROWING ADMINISTRATION. THE RATE OF BORROWING AND SHARING/STEALING OF FUNDS IS ALARMING. A MEAGER PORTION OF THESE STOLEN FUNDS COULD HAVE BEEN USED TO PROCURE TOW ...

These our illiterate drivers. I have had several brushes with them on the roads, even in Accra and on the Accra-Aflao roads. They are a menace to society.
Sadly even some literate drivers are worse offenders. The simple truth is that Ghana keeps failing in everything. The nation stinks!
I wonder if some so-called journalists or news reporters are properly trained and know the terrain of Ghana. Subriso is just about 1km from Wassa Akropong and about 20km from Bogoso, yet this buffoon reports the accident happ ...

Ghana Government must warn Sprinter bus drivers immediately. They are mostly found of driving carelessly. Unnecessarily over taking is their daily bread. They always kill innocent Ghanaian s free of charge.
oh Yaayaa Allah, please have mercy on them n also forgive them
In fact I don't like President Mahama's government but he can't be blamed for this horrible accident. Why don't we blame the minister for road and transportation. He is responsible for that rather not President Mahama we must ...

The families will not get 1cedi from any insurance co. even though the Sprinter bus is insured. What a country. They rather are talking about EC n NHIS on voter roles.
Unfortunate and sad incident. May they rest in peace
