A total of 194 lives have been lost in road crashes across the Ashanti Region between January and March 2025. This alarming statistic was revealed by Isaac Oduro, Ashanti Regional Assistant Planning Manager of the National Road Safety Authority (NRSA), during an interview with the media.
According to Oduro, the growing number of road crashes in the region is a pressing concern that requires immediate attention.
He underscored the urgent need for heightened awareness and responsible driving practices to curb the menace of road crashes.
Mr. Oduro urged drivers, passengers, motor riders, and other stakeholders to intensify road safety campaigns and practice vigilance on the roads.
The NRSA official’s call to action emphasizes the importance of collective responsibility in ensuring road safety.
As the region grapples with the devastating consequences of road crashes, it is imperative that all stakeholders work together to promote a culture of safety and responsibility on the roads. By doing so, the region can reduce the number of lives lost to road crashes and create a safer environment for all road users.
