One member of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has been confirmed dead with several others injured in a road accident at Dansame, a community in the Assin North constituency.
According to an eyewitness who spoke to Asaase News’s Eric Asante, the accident occurred when one of the front tyres of the vehicle burst.
The former president and his entourage have suspended their campaign to commiserate with the family of the deceased.
“I’ve had to suspend my campaign in Assin North for about 2hrs to visit injured sympathizers who were involved in an accident after our engagement at Dansame. Unfortunately, we lost one of our comrades who enthusiastically joined others to the programme. Our condolences to her family,” former President John Dramani Mahama confirmed the accident and the death in a tweet.
