Sergent Owusu Sekyere narrated how the incident happened to Citi News.
“I’m a soldier man. When my former wife lost his father, I called my mother to accompany me to the funeral. She came to meet me at Bundase and we attended the funeral. After the funeral, on our way back home, we joined a public transport from Kordeabe to Teshie. Because my mother was tired, I hired a taxi for her to take my daughters home when the accident happened. I lost my daughters and my mother, I’m very sad now,” he lamented.
