Three soldiers died in an accident
at Dzake-Peki in the Volta Region, Saturday evening.
According to a witness, the soldiers were heading to
Accra in a Toyota Hiace Hearse vehicle when the accident occurred.
Their bus was said to have
collided head on with an oncoming Benz bus which was carrying some passengers
as well as some roofing sheets, rice, bicycles and some cartridges.
The front grill, windscreen and doors of the Toyota Hiace with
registration number 14 GA 96 were dented beyond repairs.
The Benz bus was also left in a
state of disrepair as well. It is not clear yet what may have caused the
accident.
Scores of passengers in the Benz bus sustained varying degrees of
injuries and were rushed to the hospital.
The accident happened in the
evening at 7:00pm.
The eye witness said, the accident happened on
the stretch of road on the Eastern corridor, a stretch which is fast
becoming a death trap.
