The National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Sammy Awuku has escaped death after he was involved in a road crash on the Ejisu-Konongo stretch in the Ashanti Region.
The incident occurred when Awuku was returning from Koforidua on Thursday after he had gone to train party organisers and volunteer groups.
According to a report filed by Citinewsroom, a tricycle crossed his vehicle just after Ejisu and lost control of its brakes causing it to run into the vehicle carrying him.
