The Jubilee House of Ghana has commiserated with the family of the driver who lost his life in an accident involving President Akufo-Addo’s convoy.

The incident happened at Bunso on Wednesday morning, while the convoy was on its way back from Kumasi, after accompanying the President to a series of events this weekend.

The driver of a Toyota Land Cruiser, Kwesi Arthur, unfortunately lost his life in the process.

“Additionally, several close protection and police officers from the President’s security detail sustained varying degrees of injuries and received initial treatment at the Suhum Government Hospital. The injured persons are currently being evacuated to the University of Ghana Medical Centre for further treatment and observation,” the May 19 statement revealed.

The press release signed by the Jubilee House Director of Communications, Eugene Arhin, added “Our thoughts and prayers are with the family of the deceased, and we wish a speedy recovery to the injured officers.”

Jubilee House reiterated that it is keenly monitoring activities and will communicate details of subsequent arrangements.

Reports say the vehicle was crossed by a KIA Rhino truck, resulting in the crash.

Videos on social media show the badly mangled Toyota on the side of the road, with some security personnel also spotted around.
