The management of 2M Express Company Limited has expressed their deepest sorrow over the unfortunate accident that occurred on the Accra to Kumasi highway on Sunday, March 26.

2M Express says it prays for speedy recovery for the injured persons but assures the victims and the families of their support in this hard time.

While the company works with the Police to handle the situation, the management, however, has clarified some false reports and misconceptions this unfortunate incident has brought, especially in the media space.

Read the rest of the company’s statement below:

There are reports that 2M Express bus was over-speeding and diverted to cause the accident but this is falsehood.

The tracking system installed by the company to ensure the safety and security of its drivers and passengers shows that the 2M Express driver was travelling at 91km per hour, which indicates he was not on top speed.

Contrary to the false reports, the fatal crash, which occurred at 3:45 am, was as a result of a 14-seater GPRTU minibus, similar to 2M Express Toyota Hiace Bus, heading from Neoplan station in Kumasi to Accra which veered off the road into the lane of the 2M Express bus that was on its way to Kumasi from Accra.

The GPRTU minibus driver’s vision was impeded by a cargo container that had derailed from a trailer truck from an earlier accident and had been left on the road, thus compelled the GPRTU driver to suddenly skid into the direction of the 2M Express bus which was on its right lane at 91km per hour and not over speeding.

2M Express delivers a very safe, comfortable and convenient transport services with well-trained drivers and will never endanger the lives of its passengers; it therefore appeals to the general public not to panic as the company won’t compromise their safety and security on the road.
