Government delegation visits Komenda accident survivors today

A government delegation will today, January 16, 2020 visit survivors of the Komenda road accident which claimed 34 lives and injured several others on Tuesday.

The delegation which is led by the Ministers for Roads and Transport, Kwesi Amoako-Atta and Kwaku Ofori Asiamah will also engage doctors and nurses treating the injured.

President Akufo-Addo earlier in a message consoled with families of the victims and wished the injured a speedy recovery.

The visit by the delegation will also afford the ministers an opportunity to engage with the National Road Safety Authority in the Central Region on ways to ensure greater compliance with transport safety regulations, especially among commercial road users.

Preliminary investigations have blamed the incident on overspeeding from the drivers of the two passenger vehicles.
