A seamstress’ apprentice in her early twenties was run over and killed on the spot by an over speeding vehicle at Akatsi in the Volta Region.

Occupants of the vehicle that run over the lady, according to reports, included an assemblyman of one of the electoral areas within the Akatsi South district and a friend with whom he was travelling in a private vehicle.

The deceased suffered a broken leg and arms with serious injuries to the head, a possible reason for her instant death on the road
