Fire on Wednesday evening destroyed properties running into thousands of cedis at the Physical Development & Municipal Services Directorate (PDMSD) of the University of Ghana, Legon in Accra
According to sources, the fire was the result of a gas explosion. There were no lives lost.
Our earlier report wrongly claimed the incident happened at the Bush Canteen.
Videos circulating on social media show that the explosion triggered a rapid spread of flames, sending thick plumes of smoke into the sky.
Students and vendors in the area rushed to safety as the fire raged.
Firefighters arrived later to bring the situation under control and prevent further destruction.
Authorities are yet to confirm the cause of the explosion or any potential casualties.
