He arrived at a position on the Sunyani-Kumasi highway between Nyamebekyere and Nsuta about 11:45 p.m.
There was a mound of sand on the lane, and he attempted to swerve to stop it, but he struck some railings at the road’s edge, killing everyone aboard except himself.
Okoh was admitted to the hospital and survived.
He faces charges of reckless driving and driving without a license. He has not renewed his driver’s license in three years, according to police.
Okoh is expected to report to court on March 24th.
