A tragic road accident on the Oda–Oda Nkwanta stretch has claimed the life of Kofi Nti, a personal aide to the Member of Parliament for Akyem Oda, Alexander Akwasi Acquah.

The fatal crash took place as Kofi Nti, and the driver of the NPP party pickup vehicle, were reportedly travelling to Oda Nkwanta to monitor the ongoing NPP polling station elections.

The accident involved a head-on collision between two vehicles, leaving three other persons seriously injured and currently battling for their lives at the hospital.

The incident adds to the growing number of fatal crashes recorded in the Eastern Region in recent weeks, including one that claimed the life of the former Eastern Regional Coordinator of the Free SHS Secretariat.

Kofi Nti, who was widely known within the party circles for his dedication and service, was married with children.

Authorities are yet to release further details on the cause of the accident as investigations continue.
