The three were travelling from Tarkwa to Takoradi when the Toyota Voxy they were in crashed into a tipper truck at Yareyeya on the Tarkwa-Bogoso stretch in the Western Region.
Reports gathered online indicated Akoma, 28, was a nurse who was on her way to a promotional exam/interview.
Having a nine-month-old baby, Calia, and wanting to fully concentrate on the paper, she asked her 24-year-old sister, Beatrice, to accompany her and take care of the baby during her time in the exam hall.
However, they could not reach their destination, meeting an unexpected, sad fate.
According to Tarkwa FM, the accident, which occurred at about 9:00 pm on Monday, claimed nine lives, including two children.
A video shared online showed the white-coloured Toyota Voxy mangled beyond recognition as onlookers and security personnel appeared at the site.
