A male survivor of Sunday’s accident on the Kasoa-Winneba Highway has recounted how bystanders left them to their fate in the crash which resulted in the death of 10 people and others injured.
According to him, there were a lot of people at the scene, who could have helped to rescue the victims and save lives.
“I was travelling with some people so when I managed to get up, I rescued them first after breaking the glass of the bus to let them go through the back and I asked someone to open the front door.
“Another guy, who could have helped was not conscious so I was left alone to rescue those I could and it took about 30 to 45 minutes before the Police and ambulance came,” he narrated on Accra-based 3FM.
However, they stood aloof and instead filmed the ghastly situation, leaving the victims to perish.
“But what breaks my heart is that there were a lot of people there who could have helped to save lives but they were on their phones recording videos of what had happened,” he said broken-hearted.
A total of 10 people were killed on the spot with 12 others in critical conditions after two buses collided in a wrongful overtaking at Gomoa Mampong.
