Two people, a taxi driver and his regular passenger, died this afternoon in a fatal accident involving a taxi and a trailer on the Techiman-Kintampo highway, between Amoma Nkwanta and Pramposo.
Their bodies were damaged beyond recognition.
According to eyewitnesses, the accident occurred when a construction tipper truck failed to slow down behind the taxi, which had reduced speed to give way to the trailer due to the poor condition of the road at that stretch.
The tipper truck hit the back of the taxi, forcing it into the oncoming trailer.
It took the Fire Service, Police, and road safety officials over two hours to remove the bodies from the wreckage.
During the rescue operation, another trailer, which failed to stop, crashed into another vehicle, injuring some passengers.
