A fire outbreak at the Kantamanto market in Accra Tuesday morning has destroyed goods and shops worth thousands of cedis.

The cause of the fire which affected the shops near the railway line at the Kantamanto market is immediately not known.

An eyewitness, known as Charles, told Citinewsroom.com that more than 15 shops have been gutted by the fire.

He narrated that personnel from the Ghana National Fire Service were unable to stop the blaze after they run out of water.

He, however, added that more vehicles from the Fire Service have arrived at the scene to try and quench the raging fire.

No casualty has yet been recorded.

 

The Police have cordoned off the affected area to enable the fire officers to carry out their duty without any obstructions.

Officers have also been deployed to prevent possible looting and also direct the movement of persons and vehicles away from the incident scene.

Officials from the National Disaster Management Organisation are also supporting the exercise.

The Minister for the Interior, Ambrose Dery, is at the scene with the Inspector-General of Police to assess the extent of damage and interact with the affected traders.

The Chief Fire Officer is also at the scene and coordinating the entire exercise.
