The fire then spread to the other floors destroying properties as traders and other spectators looked on.

Reinforcement was deployed to the scene when the fire escalated.

According to a report by JoyNews’ monitored by GhArticles, six fire tenders and a turntable ladder are currently being used by the personnel to quench the flame.

Due to the combustibility of some of the goods that are in some shops, the fire reignites when all seems to be under control.

Although no casualty was recorded, traders who have lost goods to the tune of millions of Ghana cedis are bearing the brunt to the inferno which started as just a spark of fire.

A cosmetic seller accused the fire service of failing to meet their mandate, thereby, causing their loss.
