FIRE GUTS KUMASI CENTRAL MARKET

The Kumasi Central Market was on Friday
evening gutted by fire.
Citi News correspondent Laurreta Tima reported
that the fire started around 5:30pm. She said,
“The fire gutted two shops and a three-storey
building, where there was an MTN wholesale
office as well as other shops.”
Lauretta added that personnel from the fire
service moved swiftly to the market when they
were called and managed to put out the fire.
She said the cause of the fire is not yet known.
The Kumasi Central market has over the years
recorded a number of fire cases. In most of the
cases, properties and goods worth thousands of
Ghana cedis were destroyed.
