The Mercedes Benz bus with registration number GR 4336 D was travelling from the Buipe market to Mpaha in the Savannah Region when the incident occurred.

A statement from the Buipe Police Command indicated that the driver of the bus, Yakubu Fataw, spotted two men hiding in the bush when he reached a section of the road between Mankpang and Adwoape.
