Parts of Kasoa New Market gutted by fire

A devastating early morning fire at the Kasoa New Market destroyed several shops and properties, leaving many market women in distress.

Despite the market section not being connected to the national grid, the fire quickly engulfed the area, likely due to human activities.

Market women, like Akosua Agyeiwaa, expressed deep concern about their losses and the challenge of restarting their businesses.

The Ghana National Fire Service responded promptly, managing to control the fire despite its intensity.

Investigations are underway, and officials have warned against using open flames in the market to prevent future incidents.
