The Communications Director of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Richard Ahiagbah, has been discharged from the hospital following a serious accident on the Accra-Kumasi highway.

His vehicle crashed into an articulated truck.

In a social media update, Mr Ahiagbah shared his relief at being discharged and expressed heartfelt thanks for the support and prayers he received.

"I am out of the hospital today with a few more knots to untie, but I am back on my feet again. Thank God almighty, and thank you all for your prayers and support," he wrote.

He acknowledged the exceptional care provided by the medical team at Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH), including Dr. Charles K. Dally, Dr. Otu Boateng, Dr. Roland Azorliade, and Professor Peter Ambe, along with the nursing staff.

Describing his time at KATH as both "frightening and painful," Ahiagbah also highlighted the insights he gained into the state of Ghana's healthcare system.
