Two Kia Trucks Stranded in Muddy Road Incident Near Akuse Cemetery
Akuse, Eastern Region | Tuesday, June 2, 2026 | Approximately 7:00 AM
Two long Kia trucks, bearing registration numbers GC 5257-12 and GC 3876-12, became involved in an incident near the Akuse Cemetery on Tuesday morning after both vehicles got stuck on the muddy and deteriorated stretch of road.
According to information gathered by Marego TV, one of the trucks was transporting bags of maize (corn), while the other was loaded with palm kernels. Drivers at the scene explained that the vehicles did not crash into each other in the conventional sense.
They stated that both trucks became trapped in the muddy section of the road, and a tipper truck was attempting to assist in pulling them out. During the rescue effort, the truck carrying maize reportedly tilted and shifted sideways, resulting in contact with the other truck and leaving both vehicles stranded in an awkward position.
The incident caused a temporary obstruction on the road and drew the attention of residents and motorists who expressed frustration over the poor condition of the route.
The situation has once again highlighted growing concerns about the deplorable state of roads in Akuse, particularly during the rainy season when sections become muddy and difficult for heavy-duty vehicles to navigate.
Fortunately, no casualties were reported, although both trucks sustained challenges in movement and some of the cargo had to be offloaded to ease recovery efforts.
Residents are calling on the relevant authorities to expedite road rehabilitation works to prevent similar incidents and ensure the safety of road users.
