This brings the number of reported deaths to 10 - five males and five females.
Eight people died on the spot on Saturday when the cargo truck collided with a 207 Benz bus at Buoho on the Kumasi-Techiman road.
ASP Quansah, the Offinso Divisional Police Commander, told Joy News: “As at [Sunday] morning when investigators went to the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital, the information we received is that two more females have also passed away.”
