Fire has destroyed a seven-bedroom house, rendering about twenty people homeless at Mpatasie near Berekum in the Bono Region.
Several properties have been damaged and an undisclosed amount of money has been burned along with the house.
According to eyewitnesses, they only noticed the fire when smoke started coming out of one of the rooms, which eventually spread to the other rooms.
The tenants have currently moved in with friends and relatives.
The landlady of the house, Ama Henewaa, narrated that she found out about the distressing news while she was at her shop and then rushed home quickly.
She has currently lost all her belongings and says “What to wear is even a problem” because everything has been consumed by fire.
The Fire Service, however, is yet to communicate the cause of the fire as investigations are still ongoing.
