THE family of the nine-year-old girl who tragically died a horror crash in Altrincham have paid tribute to their 'star' daughter.

Shortly after 10.50am on Saturday May 7 police were called to reports of a road traffic collision on Manchester Road near to Stamford Brook Road in Altrincham.

Officers arrived and found a black Toyota Auris had hit a brick wall by a block of flats.

Police discovered a man and two children in the vehicle.

Sadly a nine-year-old girl was pronounced dead at the scene. She has since been formally identified as Olivia Edohasim.

A 45-year-old man and an 11-year-old girl were taken to hospital where they both remain in a stable condition and are recovering from their injuries.

Paying tribute to her, Olivia’s family said: “Olivia Edohasim was delivered to the world in late summer 2006. This little bundle of joy was gladly welcomed and breezed through her milestones with ease.

“She brought smiles to all faces at all times and was the star daughter, sister, granddaughter and god daughter.

“She was exceptional at school and left a blaze of success in all that she engaged in and was never afraid to step out of her comfort zone. She grew up and was nurtured in her family’s traditional Christian beliefs.

“She will be greatly missed by all of us but will remain in our thoughts and hearts forever.”
