The Presiding Member (PM) of the Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA), Mr Alfred Adjei, has commiserated with victims of a fire outbreak at ‘Rail Power’ in the Okaikoi South Sub-Metropolitan District.
Accompanied by members of the Public Relations and Complaints Committee (PRCC) of the Assembly, the PM, who doubles as the Assemblyman for the Avenor Electoral Area, visited the disaster site to sympathise with the victims.
The ‘Rail Power’ provides dining and residential services to commuters at Avenor, a suburb of Accra.
Mr Adjei and his team were led by the Chairman of the Circle Neoplan Transport Terminal, Mr Edward Anim Sefa, to assess the level of destruction of the facility.
The PM advised the occupants of the facility to notify the Electricity Company of Ghana to check the meters being used since there was the possibility that the fire might have been caused by an electrical fault, adding that he would provide assistance when the need arose.
Mr Alex Benson, the operator of the facility, said the fire started around 2030 hours when they immediately called the Fire Service, who arrived to douse the fire.
