AVSF raises alarm over surge in road crashes as nearly 90 victims recorded in one week

The Foundation expressed concern that the growing number of crashes reflects persistent challenges with road safety in Ghana and requires coordinated action from state institutions, transport operators and road users.

The Accident Victims Support Foundation (AVSF) has raised concerns over what it describes as a worrying increase in road traffic crashes across Ghana, revealing that nearly 90 people have been affected by road accidents within the past week.

The Foundation, which supports road crash victims and their families, said recent incidents including the Bukom crash, the fatal military vehicle accident at Nkenkensu and the collision involving a school bus carrying about 40 to 45 children at Shiashie highlight the urgent need for stronger road safety measures.
