A gas station located between the Labadi Cemetery and the Trade Fair centre in the Greater Accra Region has caught fire.
Narrating the incident to Citi News, an eyewitness, Joseph Quaye Amoo said: “I was sitting opposite the Kpogas furniture area when all of a sudden I heard a very loud explosion and I turned back and saw a huge flame, a huge furnace so everybody started running…”
He was however uncertain about what might have caused the fire but suggested that “either a car engine or an ignition might have lit up the whole flame.”
Mr. Amoo indicated that no casualties has been recorded yet.
