Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Abuakwa (Ash), Aug. 3, GNA \u2013 Six persons have been confirmed dead in the Wednesday morning accident, which occurred at Abuakwa in the Ashanti Region. The accident, which involved a Ford bus with registration number GS 3600-12, with passengers on board, was heading towards Kumasi from the Sunyani highway.<\/p>\n

A source at the Abuakwa Police Station told the Ghana News Agency that the school bus was empty at the time of the incident. Two passengers in the Ford bus, including the conductor, died on the spot.<\/p>\n
