About 40 students of the Amedzofe Technical School in the Ho West district of the Volta Region have been involved in a ghastly accident on the mountainous Amedzofe road.

This was after the bus transporting them  tumbled down the two-storey-deep valley after the driver lost control while climbing the steep road back to Amedzofe.

The driver of the bus is reportedly in a critical condition with the students sustaining various injuries.

The accident occurred on Tuesday, 12 June 2019 when the students were returning from an inter-schools sports festival in Ho.

The injured students have been sent to the Ho Municipal Hospital for treatment.
