A student from ASEC was killed in a horrific dawn accident.
A 20-year-old first-year Home Economics student from the Asesewa Senior High School in the Eastern Region died in a tragic car accident Monday morning near Mampong in the Lower Manya Krobo Municipality.
Batsa Florence Aku, who was said to be sandwiched between the rider of the Royal motorbike with registration number M-17-GR 1462, Tetteh Patrick Lawer, 20, and a female friend, Mabel Angmortekie, also 20, died on the spot, while the two sustained varying degrees of injury.
The accident happened at 2 a.m. as the three were returning from the Memorial Night Club, a popular nightclub in Somanya.
During preliminary investigations, the rider and owner of the motor told police that an unidentified vehicle driving in the opposite direction veered off its lane into theirs, and in an attempt to avoid a head-on collision with the oncoming vehicle, they lost control of the motor and crashed.
The deceased was said to have been thrown off her bike into a nearby shed, where she sustained a deep cut in her neck caused by the iron sheds.
Lawer and Mabel both suffered severe injuries to their legs, heads, and other parts of their bodies and are said to be receiving treatment at Agomanya's St. Martin's De Porres Hospital, with the latter in critical condition.
The deceased's body has been deposited at the same facility's mortuary for preservation and autopsy.

Farouk Aliu Mahama, Member of Parliament for Yendi Constituency, has provided assistance to 500 women engaged in small-scale farming.
The MP provided training as well as farming inputs such as Knapsack spraying machines, pesticides and weedicides, Wellington boots, cutlasses, and fertilizers.
Beneficiaries were drawn from communities in the country's eastern corridor and were taken through a series of agricultural best practices trainings facilitated by experts.
"Small-scale farming produces approximately 80% of the world's food." Women account for 43 percent of agricultural labor in developing countries on average, but they lack the most basic tools and inputs for their agricultural activities.
"In response, I supported 500 women from the Eastern Corridor with training, farm inputs, and tools yesterday through my NGO, the Partnership for Poverty Reduction (PPR)." "The women from Yendi, Tatale-sanguli, Bimbilla, Kpandai, Saboba, and Karaga were given Knapsack spraying machines, pesticides and weedicides, Wellington boots, cutlasses, fertilizers, and a training session with agricultural experts," Farouk Mahama wrote on Facebook.
According to the MP, his NGO is still dedicated to empowering and supporting women in agriculture.
