17 killed in grisly accidents in Ghana
accidents near Konongo in Kumasi
Accra - Arab Today
Seventeen people died in two separate grisly accidents near Konongo in Kumasi, some 260 km north of the capital, a senior police officer confirmed to local media on Friday.
Twelve persons died instantly Friday dawn after a 23-seater fully loaded mini bus rammed into a stationary timber truck.
Superintendent Bossman Ohene Boadi, the Divisional Police Commander for the area, said the bus may have crashed into the truck because it was packed in the middle of the highway.
An earlier accident at the same spot killed five people Thursday night, he confirmed, saying his unit was doing their best to get the stationary trucks out of the road to prevent further deaths.

The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
