The Fomena district police said the motorcycle collided with an Opel taxi cab with registration number AS2673-14 at the farming community on the Kumasi-Cape Coast highway shortly after 4:00 pm on Monday.
“The motorcyclist was taken to New Edubiase Government Hospital with severe leg injuries and unfortunately was pronounced dead, while being prepared to be taken to Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital in Kumasi,” said Supt. Yaw Obeng Asubonteng, the Fomena district police commander.
He said it was too early to state the cause of the accident, indicating that the police need some time to finish with the investigations.

He entreated motorists to be cautious on the road, especially, in this rainy season.
