“Ghanaians don’t learn”- Market Woman arrested for cooking at re-opened Kejetia Market after the fire (watch video)
On Tuesday (21 March), a lady was detained for cooking at the Kejetia Market, only days after a fire damaged items worth millions of Ghana cedis.
Anyone seen using naked fire at the market will be sanctioned, according to the facility administrators.
Nana Prempeh, a labor union leader, filmed the food vendor in a video posted online.
“The fire service got wind of a lady fanning a coal pot fire near the lorry terminal and when they got there they found out that she was warming soup,” Rueben Amey, one of the market leaders said.
“Another aspect is that she is not authorised to be there,” he added. “We are not going to allow such things to happen in this market. We will not allow anybody’s negligence to cost us. We are all on high alert.”
Meanwhile, police have identified one Felicia Opoku as the main suspect in last Wednesday’s fire that destroyed over 30 businesses at the Kejetia Market.
