The Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS) has begun investigations into the fire outbreak that swept through the shoe and cobbler shops area (Nkoko Adwasuo) of the Kumasi Central market on Sunday night.
The fire, which was said to have started around 8 pm hours destroyed over 40 shops and their property running into several millions of Cedis.
It took personnel of the GNFS over four hours to bring the fire under control.
Persons whose shops were located close to that section risked salvaging their wares before the fire could reach there.
The cause of the fire is still not known, but the fire officers are blaming the haphazard electrical wiring in the shops in the affected area, which could have attracted the fire from the strong thunderstorm during the rains that evening.
