Cars, over 40 kiosks and bar burnt to ashes at Achimota

kiosks, some cars and a bar have been burnt to ashes at a slum under Achimota overhead bridge. Residents at the slum located between Eden Securities and Makey Pub woke up to the Tuesday morning and are counting their loses. Eyewitnesses say the fire started from one of the kiosks belonging to the son of the landlord who sold the land to Makay's Pub.

They suspect the fire was deliberate because the new landowner has paid the tenants to move away from his property. According to them, it is to send a message to them that they have overstayed their deadline but he has denied this.However, the fire affected more people than those who have been asked to move.
