A driver’s mate of a trailer with a registration number GR 8451-U is in critical condition after an accident at Tapa Abotoase in the Biakoye District of the Oti region.

Reports indicate the accident occurred at about 5:pm on Friday while the trailer was transporting over 1,000 buckets of paint from Accra to Krachi.

A witness, narrating the incident to Adom News, suspected a brake failure must have caused the accident.
