Two people are feared dead after the Mitsubishi Pajero in which they were traveling Friday afternoon skidded off the road at Odorkor, a suburb of Accra, and somersaulted several times before landing on its side.

Two others, who are said to be in critical condition, have been rushed to the hospital, an eye witness told Joy News.

The bodies of the two victims were still lying by the road side several minutes after the accident, the witness added.

It is not yet clear what caused the accident but it is believed the driver of the Pajero lost control while speeding.

Wailing onlookers swarmed the scene of the accident.

The police were yet to arrive on the scene of the accident at the time of filing the report.
