Background
On August 20, 2015, a team of media personnel attached to the presidency, accompanied then-President John Dramani Mahama to Ho where he opened the annual convention of the EP Church.
While returning to Accra, the Ford GMC bus in which they were travelling burst a rear tyre, veered off the road and somersaulted many times before landing in a pool of water in the nearby bush.
Nuamah died on the spot while the other journalists numbering 15 received various degrees of injury.
