Begoro, Feb 12, GNA – A drunk driver, Kwadwo Krofa, 28, died when a car he was driving at Begoro in the Fanteakwa District on Saturday, skid off the road somersaulting several times before crashing into a ditch.
Police Chief Inspector William Kwasi Nkrumah of the Begoro Police Station told the Ghana News Agency that Krofa sought permission from his Master to go and eat.
