The Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS) has confirmed that eleven single rooms were destroyed in a major domestic fire at Zaabu Zongo in the Abossey Okai area of Accra.
According to GNFS, the fire was reported at 11:28 hours, and a fire tender from the Industrial Area Fire Station arrived on the scene within eleven minutes. Firefighters were later supported by crews from the Dansoman and Accra City Fire Stations.
The combined efforts of the crews brought the fire under control at 12:14 hours and fully extinguished it by 13:09 hours.
Although eleven single rooms were destroyed, firefighters were able to salvage several adjoining houses, preventing the fire from spreading further and averting more extensive damage.
GNFS said investigations are ongoing to determine the cause of the fire, reaffirming the Service’s commitment to rapid response, professionalism, and the protection of lives and property.
