“This information is too skeletal. What was the cause of the accident?”
Enam Etornam wrote:
“You’ll be on your own and somebody’s ahowui will just cross your path and leave devastating effects on you. Sorry, sir.”
Atinyuie Sylvester Mawunyo added:
“Anytime you are buying fuel, especially when riding long distance, leave the motorbike for 40 minutes to 1 hour if you have a little time, because the bike is already hot. Anything like oil can catch fire. Something similar happened last year around Central University when I was coming to Kpone. Hmmm.”
