A/R: 25-year-old allegedly sets family house ablaze; 8 bedrooms destroyed

.
A devastating fire has destroyed a one-story building at Ahenema Kokoben, a suburb of Kumasi in the Ashanti Region, leaving eight bedrooms in ruins and displacing dozens of tenants.

Eyewitnesses claim the fire was allegedly sparked by a heated dispute between two brothers. During the altercation, the younger brother, identified as 25-year-old Papa, reportedly brandished a knife, prompting the older brother to flee.

In a fit of rage, Papa allegedly set the building on fire, resulting in the loss of valuable property and rendering several residents homeless. Thankfully, no casualties were reported.



Firefighters arrived in time to prevent the entire structure from being consumed by the blaze. However, the fire caused extensive damage, with properties worth thousands of cedis destroyed.

The displaced tenants are grappling with significant losses, while fire officials have launched an investigation into the incident. As of the time of this report, Papa remains at large.
