Friday, October 18, 2024Â – Residents of Kasoa in Ghana nearly
lynched some Chinese contractors after a rock blast incident on the Buduburam
stretch of the Accra-Winneba highway.
The road contractors are said to have blasted a stone
without warning and this allegedly led to the death of four people.
The residents said the contractors usually give them prior
notice before such blasting exercise to allow them move out of harm’s
way.Â
However, on Monday, October 14, they received no warning and this resulted in
multiple fatalities.Â
Angry locals are seen leading two Chinese nationals to the community leader in
a video shared online. As they moved, one of the locals used a stick to hit one
of the contractors on the head forcefully, dislodging his helmet.
Other locals managed to urge those holding weapons against
resorting to violence.
