Fire has engulfed parts of the Kwadaso Wood Market in Kumasi, destroying at least ten sheds.

The fire, which started around 5:00 PM, quickly spread through the market, causing significant damage to the affected structures.

“The fire started from one of the sheds and spread to the rest,” said Adam, an affected shed owner, speaking to TV3‘s Evans-Nkum.

Firefighters are currently battling the blaze, with two tenders and approximately ten firefighters on the scene. Local residents are also assisting in the firefighting efforts, while affected traders attempt to salvage what they can from the debris.
