A fatal road accident on the Asesewa-Abuosso road in the Upper Manya Krobo district of the Eastern Region involving members of the Methodist Church has resulted in the death of one person and left many others critically injured.
The victims, members of the Susana Wesley Mission Auxiliary Mission (SUWMA) in Prampram, were returning from a tourism trip to Boti Falls Friday evening when their bus, registered number GR 6056-N, collided head-on with an Opel Astra taxi cab upon reaching the Abuatsam community after an alleged brake failure.
The impact of the crash forced the bus, carrying 26 church members, off the road and into a nearby valley.
One person was confirmed dead at the scene, while many others sustained severe injuries.
