It is believed the rains caused the accident due to the slippery nature of the road coupled with the incessant speed by drivers who ply the road.

In a separate accident on the motorway,two other vehicles have somersaulted with the cars lying with their roof upside down.

In one of the videos captured by an eyewitness two articulated trucks had collided with each other with one of the trucks severely damaged .

Personnel of the Ghana Police Service and the Ghana National Fire Service had moved to the accident seen to assess the situation and help rescued those trapped in the rubble.
