Responding to the claims, the company emphasized that the truck in question was not part of its fleet. It further urged the public to avoid spreading unverified information that could tarnish its reputation.
Despite distancing itself from the accident, Kofi Job Constructions extended heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families and expressed sympathy to all those affected by the tragedy. The company also called on relevant authorities to conduct a thorough investigation to determine the actual cause of the accident and to identify the responsible parties.
Kofi Job Constructions concluded by appealing to the public and media practitioners to exercise caution and ensure the accuracy of information before publication, stressing the importance of responsible reporting in sensitive matters such as road accidents.
