Ghanaian award-winning musician Kuami Eugene sustained injuries on Sunday night after ramming his car into a tipper truck.
The accident occurred at CP, close to the DSTV office, towards the Dzorwulu traffic light in Accra.
Emmanuel Ajarfor Abugri, the editor of Modern Ghana News Portal, said that he was directly behind the musician's vehicle when the collision occurred around 11:30 p.m.
He told Myjoyonline.com that he only noticed it was the musician in the car with one male passenger when he went closer to offer assistance.
"I was the first to run to his aid because I was behind him. As Kwame was finding it difficult to come out of the car, I helped him and the other passenger before some other people arrived. I made arrangements for a car to transport them to the UGMC hospital".
He explained, however, that the tipper truck was in motion but moving slowly when the musician crashed into it from behind.
He believes the accident occurred because the N1 highway is dark due to poor lighting, while the tipper truck also lacked a tail light, worsening visibility.
The male passenger did not appear to have any physical injuries but told nurses at the UGMC Hospital that he felt pain in his neck and back.
Ajarfor also stated that he called in police officers from the Achimota Police Station to the scene, who towed his car.
According to him, the artist appears to have broken his arm, as a cut was visible with blood on his hands. He also had a cut on his lips, a cut on his leg, and an injury to his hip.
“He’s fine. He had a broken arm with blood all over his hands. The car is badly damaged, and all the airbags are out. He could have died, he said.
The artist was in a Range Rover with registration number GC-220-21.
