The Vice Presidential Candidate of the largest opposition party, Prof. Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang Wednesday visited the Odawna market to empathize and solidarize with victims of the Odawna fire outbreak.
More than 100 wares and stalls were razed down by the dawn inferno. Properties worth millions of cedis have been consumed by the blaze.
Many of the affected traders say they went for loans to invest in their businesses, therefore, have incurred huge debts that will require the intervention of the government in form of soft loans to restart their businesses.
Prof Naana Opoku Agyemang said “listening to their harrowing stories and seeing at first-hand the full extent of damage made for a sad experience, but in all, we are grateful to God that no lives were lost. I hope we shall all be there for our compatriots to assist with the restoration and rehabilitation process”
