The President John Evans Atta Mills has visited relatives of victims of the Senya Beraku accident in which 27 people died during the yuletide.
The accident occurred when a water tanker ran into a crowd of merry makers, injuring 30 others.
The President who was in the United States of America when the accident happened visited the area on Wednesday to commiserate with the families.
Joy News’ Elvis Adjetey who accompanied the President reports that Prof. Mills was welcomed by a crowd of mourners and enthusiastic residents.
