A head-on collision on the Kyebi–Asikam road in Ghana's Eastern Region claimed the lives of three people on Wednesday, August 12, 2026, according to the Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS). The accident involved a Toyota RAV4 and a Kia Picanto that crossed paths, resulting in both vehicles sustaining significant damage. Kibi Fire Station personnel were among the first to respond to the scene, where they found the two severely damaged cars and rescued the injured occupants.

Unfortunately, all three occupants of the Kia Picanto were pronounced dead at the location. The GNFS preliminary investigation suggests that the Toyota RAV4 lost control, veering into the opposite lane and colliding head-on with the Kia Picanto. The GNFS has issued a reminder to drivers in the Eastern Region to drive cautiously, avoid speeding, and refrain from improper overtaking, particularly on busy inter-town roads.
