A video of a log loader machine transporting long timber through the principal street of Ejisu in the Ashanti Region has gone viral on social media.

In the said video, the log loader could be seen carrying a long timber as it struggles to find its way on the streets around the main traffic light interception.

Exactly where the operator was transporting the timber to, could not immediately be established in the video.

The incident was filmed on Monday, January 24, 2022.

In the video, one could see that a bus carrying school children nearly collided with the heavy-duty machine as the children could be heard screaming and calling on God to save them.

The person doing the filming and some of the residents around him were also shouting and wondering why a machine that was supposed to be working at a logging site suddenly found its way on the principal street.

"Where could he be taking this to?", "Is this happening in Ghana?", "In Ghana, we play with everything", "The operator may not be a normal person", "Oh God so this is Ejisu", "This can only be witnessed in Ghana" were some of the comments that could be heard in the video.

A log loader is often the last machine at a logging site to handle timber before it heads off to the mill; as the name implies, these machines pick up logs from a staging site and load them for transport.
