A critical section of Ghana's major north-south highway near Babatokuma, Kintampo, remains completely blocked more than 48 hours after a single-vehicle accident.
Since the crash, no single truck or vehicle from either the northern or southern parts of the country has been able to cross the affected stretch, situated strategically in the Bono East Region.
This has created an unprecedented traffic gridlock that has rendered hundreds of commuters stranded and threatened vast quantities of perishable goods.
Adome TV's Bono East Correspondent, Wiafe Akenten, reports that the incident, which occurred around 11:00 PM on Sunday, July 27, 2025, has effectively severed a vital transport artery, causing widespread frustration and significant economic losses.
