Civil society organisation, OneGhana Movement has expressed criticism against the lack of headway made in getting justice served to the victims of the June 3 disaster, seven years ago.
According to the group, the delay since the twin-disaster happened has been 'agonisingly slow'.
Ghana experienced a flood disaster with the combination of a fire outbreak at Kwame Nkrumah Circle on June 3, 2015, leading to the death of over 150 lives people.
That year, OneGhana Movement filed a class-action lawsuit against GOIL, the National Petroleum Authority (NPA) and the Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA) to demand compensation for the victims.
But in a statement released by One Ghana Movement, assurance made by governments to even hold persons accountable have left much to be desired, seven years on.

"As expected, authorities rushed to the scene the following day with the “usual” promises to bring
perpetrators to book. Seven years on, no one has been held accountable for this avoidable disaster. The
government of the day and the government today have all but paid lip service to justice, accountability, and commensurate compensation for victims," Friday's statement read.
The group further reiterated its call to "government and the judiciary that justice delayed for the lives affected is justice denied and a failing of the duty of care owed to our fellow citizenry."
