We are deeply concerned to report on a recent incident involving a Metro Mass Transit bus travelling from Kaneshie to Obuasi-Dunkwa. The journey took a harrowing turn when the bus caught fire, leading passengers to promptly evacuate upon noticing smoke.
Upon further inspection of the bus’s luggage compartment, authorities made a startling discovery. Parcels containing suspected marijuana and acid were found, adding a perplexing layer to the situation. This raised serious questions about the circumstances surrounding the incident.
Thankfully, firefighters and police swiftly responded to the scene, bringing the situation under control and confiscating the illicit items. However, the presence of these illegal substances has understandably caused outrage and disbelief among the public.
Passengers onboard the bus recounted the alarming experience and expressed their concerns, prompting them to urge authorities at bus terminals to thoroughly search passengers' baggage to prevent such unfortunate circumstances from reoccurring in the future.
The discovery of illegal substances in the bus has sparked widespread shock and amusement, with many taking to social media to express their disbelief at the bizarre turn of events.
As authorities continue their investigations to determine the cause of the fire and how the illicit items ended up in the bus’s luggage compartment, it is clear that further action is necessary to prevent such incidents from happening again. The driver has stated that he has no idea where the items came from, and no passenger has owned up to them.
We hope that through thorough investigations and increased vigilance, measures can be put in place to ensure the safety and security of all passengers on public transportation.
