#AccraFloods #ChannelOneTV #ChannelOneNews #GhanaNews #Flooding #Weather #Disaster #Climate #EmergencyResponse #BreakingNews The aftermath of the devastating fire at the Odawna Plastic Market has left traders counting heavy losses after Monday's torrential rains caused widespread flooding across parts of Accra and the Central Region. As floodwaters inundated communities and disrupted transportation, a fire outbreak at the Odawna market compound compounded the destruction, destroying goods and businesses. Rashid Kwame Nisawu, the Greater Accra Regional Commander of the Ghana National Fire Service, provides an update on the incident, emergency response efforts, and the challenges firefighters faced during the combined flood and fire disaster. The incident has renewed calls for long-term flood mitigation measures, improved drainage infrastructure, and stronger disaster preparedness across Ghana.
