Family of 3-year-old boy who died in LilWin’s car crash speaks

The accident scene

Victoria Nketiah, a relative of Tawiah Ampomah, the three-year-old who died in the car accident involving Kwadwo Nkansah, known as LilWin, has disclosed details about the tragic event that has caught the public's attention.

Victoria, related to the driver whose vehicle collided with LilWin's, resulting in the child's death, stated that her in-law and his son were in the front seat when the accident happened. The boy sustained severe injuries and was declared deceased upon arrival at the hospital.

Currently, her in-law is in a critical condition and receiving treatment at the Okomfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) in Kumasi.

"Tawiah Ampomah passed away on Saturday, May 25, 2024, at the hospital, and his father is in critical condition at KATH.

"My in-law's family accompanied the police to view the boy's body at the morgue," Victoria explained during an interview with Angel FM.

She added that the police have not yet completed their investigation to amicably settle the matter.

Victoria also mentioned that LilWin's management team has contacted the family to extend their support.

"The police haven't updated us on their accident investigation. Our concern is that the child was overlooked when the incident happened, as everyone focused on LilWin. The media, too, has prioritized LilWin over addressing the child's death and finding solutions.

"LilWin's management visited the hospital to discuss supporting the family. We've asked them to wait until the police investigation concludes," she said.
