The Vice President escaped unhurt, Gideon Boako said, but added that a driver of the commercial vehicle who was involved in the accident lost his life.
Joy News’ Richard Kwadwo Nyarko has been to the hospital and reports that all five injured persons who were admitted have been discharged.
The three men and two women have been given a clean bill of health by doctors.
