GNFS identifies possible cause of Kumasi Central Market fire

File photo of fire outbreak The Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS) is investigating a possible electrical fault following the restoration of power as a potential cause of the fire that swept through part of the Kumasi Central Market near the Aboabo station.

Despite the presence of the police, the situation made it difficult for fire crews to manoeuvre through the market and gain access to affected areas.

Investigations into the exact cause of the fire are continuing, while assessments are also underway to determine the extent of the damage and the total financial losses incurred by affected traders.
