🚨 HOW MANY MORE MUST DIE? 🚨 @highwaysghana
The state of the Nsawam–Suhum Motorway is a national emergency that can no longer be ignored. Open manholes, deep potholes, and long stretches without streetlights have turned a major highway into a death trap.
We are not speaking from hearsay. We are speaking as survivors.
A single manhole on the highway was all it took to change our lives forever. In a split second, our vehicle plunged into it, lost control, and rolled over several times. What should have been a normal journey became a nightmare of twisted metal, shattered glass, and the terrifying uncertainty of whether we would make it out alive.
By the grace of God, we survived. Many others have not been that fortunate.
Every day, innocent road users leave their homes hoping to arrive safely, only to be met by dangerous road conditions that should never exist on a major highway. Families are losing loved ones. Children are becoming fatherless and motherless. Dreams are being buried because basic road maintenance and lighting have been neglected.
To the Ghana Highway Authorities and all responsible agencies:
How many more accidents must happen?
How many more vehicles must be destroyed?
How many more lives must be lost before urgent action is taken?
No Ghanaian should have to gamble with their life simply by using a public road.
The time for excuses is over. Fix the potholes. Cover the manholes. Install streetlights. Save lives.
We survived to tell our story. Others may not get that chance. 💔🕯️
