This brings the number of deaths on Ghana’s roads from January to April to 1034.

The Director of Operations at the MTTD, Dr Samuel Sasu Mensah noted that the rate of accidents keeps surging.

“When we viewed the statistics, the statistics were not good at all. Because what we see now is that we have done so many enforcement, education, and awareness exercises. From January to April, the total number of crashes that have been recorded is 5476.”
