Six out of the 39 on board an STC bus travelling from Accra to Cape Coast are said to be in critical condition after the bus was involved in an accident on Monday, April 17.
The bus with registration number GB 1079-20 is said to have veered off the road at Gomoa Buduatta. A tipper truck with registration number GW 7932-22 was also seen somersaulted near-by.
The cause of the accident is not immediately known.
But speaking to journalists, driver of the tipper truck Kwabena Tawiah blamed the driver of the STC for the accident.
He accused his opposite number of speeding.
Victims were taken to the Trauma and Specialist Hospital in Winneba as well as the Effutu Municipal Hospital, where they are said to be responding to treatment.
Six are, however, said to be in critical condition.
Most of the passengers on-board the STC are students heading to schools in the Central Region.
