One person was killed on Wednesday after a Man-Diesel fuel tanker and a HOWO truck collided at the Kintampo Waterfalls junction on the Kintampo-Tamale highway.
According to the Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS), the service received a distress call at about 12:14 pm regarding the collision between a Man-Diesel fuel tanker with registration number GN-4895-20 and a HOWO truck with registration number GE-555-23.
The GNFS responded quickly, dispatching a crew led by ASTNO Bismark Bonnah Frimpong. Upon arrival, the crew rescued one of the drivers who was trapped alive.
The GNFS explained that four injured passengers had been rescued earlier and transported to the hospital, while one motionless person was retrieved from the HOWO truck at the scene.
Both vehicles’ cowls were damaged beyond repair, although the fuel tanker was empty at the time. The GNFS has launched an investigation into the accident to determine its cause
