Former vice-president detained in hospital

Former Vice President Kow Nkensen Arkaah, who has been hospitalised following a motor accident, will remain in hospital for sometime.

Sources at the 37 Military Hospital where Mr Arkaah is, said he will remain there even though his condition has stabilised and he is not in danger.

The sources said he has been responding to treatment. He is at the intensive care unit mainly because of his age but gave no more details.

Meanwhile, Mr Kwesi Amoah, a 24-year-old shoe dealer, who was knocked down by Mr Arkaah's car, has been discharged from the same hospital.

Mr Arkaah was involved in the accident last Monday near his residence at East Cantonment whilst returning from Winneba, his hometown.
