One missing, 5 injured after vehicle plunges into river at Fetteh Kakraba

One person has been reported missing with five others injured in an accident involving a Sprinter Bus on the Kasoa-Cape Coast Highway.

The accident occurred on Thursday morning after the bus with registration number GG 5639-19 skidded off the road and plunged into a river at Fetteh Kakraba.

Information gathered by Adom News suggests that, the contractor, Nag Fairmont Company working on the Kasoa -Cape Coast Highway failed to cover the bridge which is under construction at Fetteh Kakraba.

In an interview, some residents and eyewitnesses lamented that, the contractor has failed to put safety signs along the bridge, posing danger to commuters.

They have therefore appealed to the Minister of Roads and Highway, Francis Asenso-Boakye to call the contractor and engineers to order.

Meanwhile, the victims are receiving treatment at Awutu Bereku Health Center.
