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.

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.
