PManagement
of the Ghana Police Hospital is looking for the family of the head porter and
her two-year-old son who died after a school wall collapsed on them at Newtown, a suburb
of Accra.
The wall of the
Kwame Nkrumah Basic School located in the Ayawaso Central Municipality
collapsed on the woman, who is believed to be in her 30s
and operated at the Mallam Attah Market at about 1:30pm, according to eyewitness accounts.
The yet-to-be identified child also died on the spot
while strapped to the back of his mother,
who was a Kayayo.
They
were later rushed to the Police Hospital for treatment by witnesses but
pronounced dead upon arrival by the doctors.
The
Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the Ghana Police Hospital, Deputy
Superintendent of Police (DSP) Yaw Nketia Yeboah told DAILY GUIDE that the
bodies were conveyed to the hospital by some men.
“The
deceased has a small old mark on her forehead and had a corn roll hair-do.”
Relatives,
he said, are to report to the Out Patients Department (OPD) of the health
facility.
Meanwhile,
management of the health facility is also looking for the relations of two
women, a child and man, who were knocked down by vehicles at various locations
in Accra.
One
of the women believed to about 58-years-old, was brought to the health facility
from Odorkor.
DSP
Yeboah said according to the Odorkor Police, the woman was knocked down by vehicle
and had been on admission for more than eight weeks.
According
to doctors, the victim sustained fractures on both legs.
“She
gave her name as Mansa Alogbe and hails from Asiadowui, Tefle but resides at
Madina Baba Yara.”
He
said efforts to trace the family have proved futile, adding that a relative, who
was contacted previously, never turned up.
The
other victims were picked from Weija, Shiashie and Usher Fort, all in Accra.
The
victims, who could not mention their names or that of their relatives, are currently
receiving treatment.
He called on relatives to report to the OPD of the Police Hospital for further information.
