The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has appealed to government and the National Road Safety Commission (NDC), in particular, to take urgent steps to address the recent spate of road accidents.
According to the largest opposition party, the recent spate continues to claim able-bodied and irreplaceable lives in the country.
This was contained in a statement issued on Friday, March 22 by the National Communications Officer, Sammy Gyamfi.
The statement comes in the wake of Friday’s deadly accidents recorded separately at Ekumfi-Dunkwa in the Central Region and Ampomakrom near Kintampo in the Bono East Region.
“The National Democratic Congress (NDC) joins Ghanaians in mourning the precious souls of several of our citizens who have been reported dead in two separate road accidents both of which occurred today, 22nd March, 2019.”
The party expressed heartfelt sympathies to the families of the deceased, who number almost 80, according to unconfirmed reports.
“We pray that the good Lord grants a peaceful repose of their souls and strengthen their loved ones in this time of unspeakable grief.
“We also wish all those who have sustained various degrees of injuries speedy recovery.”
