How did it get there? - Social media users react to how parked truck caused train accident

Social media users reacted furiously to a photo of a Hyundai truck parked on a rail line, which truck eventually caused an accident when a train on a test run crashed into it on Thursday.

The accident site is believed to be along the Tema-Mpakadan route where the train was to be deployed in the coming weeks.

In a photo that has since gone viral on social media, pro-government accounts and media outlets shared the photo of the truck whose driver is said to have parked it and disappeared.

On social media, opinions are split with some drawing political motives.

A group are accusing the driver of having acted out of malice and for political reasons, others are also questioning the official government narrative about how come the accident was not avoided.

John Peter Amewu, the railway minister was among those who reacted on social media, "Unfortunate, irresponsible, and unpatriotic!" he captioned his Facebook post with the said photo.

How do you even expect people to use this when texting it got into an accident?".
