medical staff of Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (Emergency Unit) who are attending to everyone who was involved in the collision,” the statement noted.
This notwithstanding they added that, “we are deeply saddened by the tragic death of a 3-year-old boy
who was involved in the gruesome accident and we extend our sincere
condolences to the bereaved family.”
According to them, in as much as they are saddened and traumatised, “we find unwarranted allegations of neglect on our part as speculated by some commentators’ very distasteful and disturbing at this troubling time.”
Again, “We want to state categorically that we were unclear about the extent of damage from the accident because our artist, manager and bouncer suffered life-threatening injuries.”
“We remain resolute that investigations by the Police would establish the
facts of matter in due course.
Raymoney, our artiste manager, is still undergoing treatment in the hospital, as is Kwadwo Nkansah, who has yet to fully recover from the tragedy but our bouncer has been processed for surgical review,” the
