Shoddy work, no value for money!! NDC? SMH!!
Nana Fokuo, what about bad driving? Have you considered that too as a cause?
Think of any other flyover in this world an see if a truck of that nature would be allowed on it and reconsider your comment
All flyovers of this nature would allow it in Europe. Just looking at the position of the truck it jackknifed because it was going too fast and braked. Bad driving full stop!
Think about ghana drivers don't go driving school
And who told you tracks are not allowed on flyovers????? Such an ignorant comment from Nii.
May be the siderials are too low or maybe we need to install reinforced guardrail.Whatever it is must be taken care of promptly before another accident.Stop blaming Mahama or NDC for this.
Don't know what you're saying.Come to United States and see flyovers that big trucks drive on.We just have reckless drivers all over and even here, they fall over sometimes.
Tell the fool la
I suspect OVERSPEEDING and exuberance of inexperience driving.
In search of job opportunities, there is a tendency for some Ghanaians to acquire driving license in a rapid fashion with minimum skill. The system is to blam ...

In any case the fencing of the flyover should be made higher considering the circle area is so busy. Under normal circumstances flyovers which are supposed to have fast moving vehicles should not have so much human activity a ...

From the picture you can see that the fencing is too short and folks standing on the bridge/flyover are even able to reach over. Which begs the question as to why there are humans on the flyover? The short fencing is a safety ...

So you read about a trailer falling over the fly-over and the only thing that comes into your coconut is shoddy work - waste of money?
tweaaa, with mindsets like yours any wonder we are where we are as a country.
Foolish man, you can't even analyse the situation. This is purely bad engineering and design! You're so ignorant!! Because of corruption and shoddy work that's why this particular accident happened
These sad incident says a lot about Ghana. Leaders and Professionals care more for self than country. If Ghana today cannot build roads and bridges for/by itself, then we should expect whatever we get from the foreign builder ...

What's wrong with the bridge? It's bad driving. Some of you need to use your head Hana!
Accident do happen but provision should be made to avoid more damage by building a strong wall
Foolish talk.if you don't have any sensible thing to say better shut your stupid mouth. Was the accident caused buy any defect of the road?
Yes a wall by the road could have avoided the truck from reaching the other side
I guess the trailer is so light that the wall will just stop like olele catching a ball.
You are right .....
You are a fool
Sid we are in consensus....a strong concrete wall built on both sides of the overpass could have forestalled such an accident. To me the overpass looks fray!
This is what happens when projects are inaugurated at phase 1...eg..komenda sugar factory.
Heavy duty vehicles are not supposed to use that flyover otherwise it won't last.
So many donkeys in ghana, did ndc ask the driver to drive the car or the overpass is broken.? get serious if you have nothing to say.
What has shoddy got to do with trailer falling over?
Some of you are indeed animals with human bodies
GHANA IS A LAWLESS NATION
No bro, Ghana is own by some Black one eyed certified fools who can do whatever they want with the rest blind folks.
People can drive cars and trucks yes but ,they don't know how to use the roads because that is not tau ...

Mr. Man are you normal at all? If that flyover the only one in Ghana? Did the NDC government push the trailer down.... think before you comment OK. gyemiiii
Mr. Man are u normal at all? Is that flyover the only one in Ghana? Did the NDC government push the trailer down? Think before you comment OK.... Use your mind
You are ill adviced, that truck was not supposed to have driven on the flyover
Masa u nt get better vibes aa mk u nt talk trash wai
Eii Ghana Dubai hmmmm!!!
Dirty Dubai.
How did this fool manage to drive over the railings
Mechanical problem
Oh Ghana democracy is killing us softly,we drive cars and trailers with no knowledge to road signs and regulations shalom peace maker
The fault is not the overhead, rather blame the stupid drivers we have in the country. The driver was on top speed when turning with these load so what do you expect.
Only 1% drivers in Ghana follows or understands the road ...

Mad and illiterate drivers must be chase out of our roads
a trailer fell of lapaz Kasoa overpass recently.
So is that shoddy work they called Dubai? God have mercy upon Ghana.
Mahama is a curse
THE DRIVER IS AN NPP FOOL WHO JUST WANT TO DESTROY THE INTERCHANGE
Govt should ban heavy trucks from using the flyover. These restrictions must be mandated for safety reasons.
Can someone tell me the reason why the young ones keep on dieing.
1) Lack of respect
2)Insullting elderly
twaddlers
whoever says Mahama cause am is a stupid fool .
and what of the accidents that are caused on other roads... better learn sense..
Value for money for you. Corrupt idiots

yes u are right
Every flyover should have strong wall to avoid such.both the designer n the construction company plus government departments should answer
ah gh drivers why i chould recall dat during the innogration the president said no heavy truck are to take the fly over then why now are the authorities working??
How strong are the crash barriers?It could be an engineering or driving problem. If the crash barriers are not strong enough they must be reinforced immediately.The interchange has been engineered to withstand all weights so ...

Ghana should implement new driving laws to regulate the kind of vehicles on the road. Because of high duty tariffs better vehicles cannot be sent to the country.
I knew this could happen one day because of the incompetency of some of those drivers on our roads. Look at the statistics of the number of accidents on our roads. Very alarming indeed. Do not blame it on the the construction ...

There is no where in the work where heavy duty long vehicles are allowed to drive on such flyovers. I have witnessed double axel trucks laden with sand, and articulators loaded with cement and iron rods driven on the Kasoa ov ...

God save Ghana from this accident
God have mercy on us.
common sense should tell u all npp built so called overheads are of the same nature. come to sofoline, asafo n asokwa n see. are they better than what u see. it seems ur parents have wasted their resources schooling u.
Putting safety in perspective, bad driving, reckless driving, drunk driving etc makes inner city over pass unnecessary. Must often over pass are built to ease off traffic entering and leaving inner cities or built over riv ...

A very good work done by NDC thiefs The good work done by Rawlings and his party. A suicide trap by Rawlings and NDC.
I don't no DAT u fool paaa animal self will not say DAT
Poor discripttion,poor analyzation , poor written..and poor story telling
Am suprise we still have people who are senseless. What has this got to do with NDC? Is the driver trainemd by Mahama and his NDC? U villager for that matter shut ur dirty mouth if u don't have anything to comment on.
NDC Dubai interchange
we should blame DVLA 20 yrs are all trailer driver what a hell in Ghana.licence class F issue to first applicants instead of upgrading grudualing .dont blame contructor or Ndc.check the driver age first
instead of some stupid Ghanaians questioning the mental state of the driver, they're here talking of NDC NPP.
Villagers come to the city and they think that's all. Travel outside and see the sort of accidents on roads which are better than what u see back home in Ghana. U fool , but no one blames a government

They should not allowed heavy duty vehicle to use the flyover.... This is not the fault of any President it is the fault of the road and high way they have to educate the drivers
I remember my friend saying that it was not safe and a car will fall off the flyover during his trip to Accra from the UK. Former president Mahama should be arrested along with the contracts for their failure to comply with h ...

carelessness in driving by some of our drivers will be resulting in such an respected accident our country.
This one goes to our drivers in both rural and urban centres to take caution about this incident

oooo Ghana
Where are the fake pastors
Which are we talking about a bridge breakdown here or we are talking about a trailer that has fall here
Hmmm they just did some bad polished work. NDC totally bad but the need to suid at the court.
Who ever says shoddy wrk, id a big fool and doesn't understand accident
Our bad alcoholic drivers will even break the wall of Jericho easily
Maybe it might not be about driving but lets check and see if the trailer detached itself from the head. I believe there was a detaching along the line that might have caused the accident.
Ghanaians dont value any good thing.agyunfi
Why should we blame Mahatma ei Ghana Adela w) fie a oye.
Why should we blame Mahama ei Ghana adepa w) fei a oyea
This is silly Dubai
The driver is the current NDC Have Branch Treasure in the Volta region
I said it. Mahama is a criminal, he looted all our monies and used it for this shordy work
Incompetent talking. If you have nothing in your heard stay indoor and ask God for wisdom
This is the kind of "Dubai" the NDC was touting about; they were showering extravagant praises on John Mahama's fly-over projects, saying none of Ghana's leaders had been able to accomplish such a feat. Now, see what's happen ...
