The incident, according to an eyewitness, occurred a few minutes after midnight on Sunday, September 10, 2023, on the ACP Estate and Kwabenya stretch in Accra.
Deputy News Editor of UTV, Prince Obimpeh, explained in a live interview on United ShowBiz that:
“Between the ACP Junction and the Kwabenya stretch, the road is usually clear at night, and so the cars are usually at top speed, even though there is police presence on the road. A short distance away from the KNUST Accra Campus Junction, coming out of the valley, he saw people gathered around a car. So, he decided to park and see what was happening. Upon checking, he said he realized a lady was coming out of a car. She had dreadlocked hair just like Wendy Shay.
So getting closer to verify, it was Wendy Shay. The Wrangler she was using had a customized registration number, ‘SHAY.’ So quickly, he got closer to her and asked her what was happening. She said she can’t talk much, as she’s in severe pain in the head because she hit her head on the dashboard,”
As for how the accident occurred, an eyewitness said the artiste collided with a tipper truck loaded with sand, which was facing her direction after she attempted to evade the truck.
“Had it not been for the gutter by the road into which part of her car skidded, Wendy Shay’s Wrangler would have toppled over,” the eyewitness reported.
A video from the accident scene, shared by UTV, shows a mangled frontside of the Jeep Wrangler with the registration SHAY 21-19.
According to the eyewitness, efforts are being made to transport the Ghanaian songstress Wendy Shay to a nearby health facility for medical attention.
