Police Inspector Evanz Attitsogbui Grunitzky, South Tongu District Motor Transport and Traffic Directorate (MTTD) Commander, told the Ghana News Agency that the herdsman refused to use the animal crossing which was 200 meters from where the incident happened.
“There is an animal crossing about 200 meters from the scene of the accident but the herdsman refused to use it and did not use any warning sign or reflective clothing whilst crossing the road. It took the watchfulness of the driver to save the situation,” he said.
