An eyewitness, Isaac Conduah, who narrated the incident to Nhyiraba Paa Kwesi Simpson, the host of Connect FM’S Omanbapa Morning Show recounted what he saw.
“We were standing just at the entrance of the St. Mary’s Boys SHS. We were supposed to cross the road to the other side. As she decided to move, two vehicles were moving in the opposite direction so she became confused. Unfortunately, the cement vehicle knocked and run over her. She was still holding food flask after going to give food to her brother in the school.
We looked in her bag and saw identity cards containing her name and we also found some phone numbers and called her family members,” Isaac Conduah indicated.
