She survived a deadly crash on the Accra-Suhum highway on November 14, 1993. The spot of the accident has been nicknamed ‘Suhum 22’ because 22 people were killed in that incident.
It was an accident involving a 33-seater passenger bus and a cargo truck, reported to have been carrying out a dangerous overtaking.
As part of JoyNews’ #ArriveAlive campaign, Komla Adom interacted with 57-year-old Kafui Akua Dansoa Akatu, who would be rendered redundant – and for the rest of her active working life in the fire service - almost thirty years, unable to continue her physical education training.

JoyNews’ #ArriveAlive campaign is a road safety campaign aimed at finding solutions on how to make roads in Ghana safe for all users with a continued discourse on reasons behind the frequent road accidents recorded across the country.
