A truck conveying electoral materials from Accra to Kumasi was yesterday involved in an accident at Akyem-Asafo, near Bunso in the Eastern Region. The truck with registration number GE 4320-11, was carting 15 boxes of posters and 20 boxes of laptop batteries to Kumasi when the accident occurred about 12.30 p.m. The materials were reported to have been scattered all over the place when the pick-up ran into a ditch. The car was said to be overtaking another truck when the driver realized that another one was heading his direction and so had no option than to veer to the side of the road to avoid a collision, landing in a ditch. In the process, the election materials flew out of the vehicle but no injuries were reported. According to sources, all the election materials have been collected and repackaged and has arrived at its destination.
