A major disaster struck Tema Community 1, Site 17, on Friday, November 14, after a fast-moving commercial fire tore through several structures.<\/p>\n

According to a Facebook post shared by the Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS), the emergency call was received at 09:43 a.m, with a crew from the Tema Industrial Area Fire Station arriving on the scene just seven minutes later at 09:50 a.m.<\/p>\n

Firefighters were met with an intense blaze rapidly consuming multiple business structures.<\/p>\n
