A massive fire has ravaged the Lands Commission in Accra destroying several departments in the Commission's building. Fire men are battling the fire but the papers used to store records provided fuel for the fire. Joy News' Fiifi Coomson, who was at the scene of the fire reported of plumes of thick smoke billowing from the Lands Commission's building. He said apart from the Records Department which was engulfed by the raging fire, he could also see smouldering pieces of furniture in other departments. A member of the Board of the Lands Commission, Mr Oko Nii Koi Dzane, who spoke to Joy FM, said the damage caused by the fire was quite extensive. Cheque books, records books, "everything to do with accounting," he said, all went up in flames. Mr Dzane said the fire started in one department but quickly spread to other departments. There are concerns officials may not be able to retrieve the records lost to the fire but Mr Dzane assured there are backups. Meanwhile Lands and Natural Resources Minister Mike Hammah says investigations would soon be launched into the incident.
