The man, who many believe to be mentally ill, is seen in a less than minute-long video online jumping from the height of the interchange and landing on the ground while neighbors cheer him on.
However, he survived and was treated after being brought to the Tamale Central Hospital, according to some bystanders who questioned the motive behind the assault.
Police in Tamale confirmed the event to MyNewsGh.com and said they are looking into it and still waiting to get a statement from the unidentified individual.
Residents voiced their concerns about how pedestrians, particularly youngsters, had transformed the dual-carriage interchange into a walkway and playground in April of this year.
Even though TaMA taskforce members are occasionally sent to the interchange and its surroundings to maintain order, the situation resumes as soon as they leave the office.
The Kumasi Road is connected to Bolgatanga Road, the Central Taxi Rank, the Central Market intersection with Melcom Road, and other roads via the approximately one kilometer-long Tamale interchange.
