The issue of road accidents has become a disturbing phenomenon in the country.
According to the Road Safety Commission, causes of the carnage on our roads are often speeding, drink-driving, poor driving skills, fatigue and many others.
Some religious fanatics think it is spiritual.
According to them, there are some 'witches' who seek blood and so cause such accidents.
However, Kwesi Pratt, the Managing Editor of the Insight newspaper disagrees.
He says "the witches are the ones who are not making us have a comprehensive transport policy; they are the ones who have been elected and given power to give us good roads and yet they are not doing so; they are the real witches."
He was speaking in a panel discussion on Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo'.

Eii @ Prof. are you commenting on the headline ???? just read before you write your comment.
Prof did you read all his submissions?
An educated person like you blaming witches for our roads accidents? I can't believe this. Road accidents in Ghana are not caused by any witches. Our accidents are caused by bad roads, negligence and poor road safety laws in the country. Under bad roads, I can point out that there are pot holes in our roads that cause accidents. Lack of dual carriages or double roads is one of the major factors of head coaliding accidents. Professional negligence driving such as wrong overtaking continues to be a major problem. Road safety laws are not rigid to deter commuters from misapplying our few major roads.
