The Ghana National Union of Technical Students (GNUTS) has issued a heartfelt call for a comprehensive investigation following the recent devastating fire outbreak at the Kantamanto Market.
In a press statement released by President Yahuza Gariba Alhassan, the Union expressed solidarity with the affected traders and urged authorities to uncover the underlying causes of the blaze.
The statement emphasized the need for an in-depth probe to identify systemic weaknesses in the construction and management of market facilities nationwide.
The Union advocates for practical recommendations aimed at enhancing fire safety standards across all markets in Ghana, ensuring that such tragedies are prevented in the future.
In addition to seeking answers, the GNUTS highlighted the urgency of support for the impacted traders, many of whom are parents with children in school.
They called on the government and private individuals to extend assistance, as these traders face significant hardships in the aftermath of the fire.
The Union’s statement not only addresses immediate concerns but also aims to foster a more resilient and secure marketplace for all Ghanaians.
The call to action seeks to mobilize collective efforts to safeguard the livelihoods of traders and the wellbeing of their families during these challenging times.
