Two former students of Achimota School have died in a tragic accident after being struck by a hit-and-run driver on the Achimota Highway.
The deceased are Davida Asante Boateng and Lilian Akorli.
According to a statement released by the Old Achimotan Association (OAA ’24 year group), the two were on their way back to the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA), on the night of Friday, March 7, after attending the Annual Bonfire Celebration at Achimota School, their alma mater.
