Last week Wednesday, one of the stores of the Melcom Group
of Companies, a retail outlet collapsed in Achimota in Accra. A “few” lives
have been lost. A number of people have been pulled out of the rubble as
survivors. Some have been able to tell their stories, their horrors, their
anguish and their shock. Ghanaians flocked to the venue and some lay men did
volunteer to help pull out some people.
The Fire Service, the Police, NADMO,
Zoomlion and all other agencies including a supporting team from Israel have
done well at helping the victims.
