Six persons sustained varying degrees of injury in two separate accidents on Asukawkaw Bridge in the Krachi East Municipality of the Oti Region.

The first accident involved a Ministry of Foreign Affairs vehicle, resulting in two injuries, while the second accident involved the “Afe Lotto” vehicle, with four persons onboard being injured.

The injured victims are receiving treatment at WoraWora Government Hospital in the Biakoye District.

Mark Odoro, the Assembly Member of Asukawkaw Electoral Area, confirmed this to the Ghana News Agency (GNA).

Drivers and pedestrians using the WoraWora-Dambai Highway for many years have expressed concern over the slippery nature of the metal plate on the steel bridge that links Biakoye to Krachi East Municipality. The Motor Traffic and Transport Division sources have confirmed the accident.
