A market woman has called on dancehall musician Shatta Wale for help after losing all her belongings in the fire that destroyed the Kantamanto Market on January 2, 2025.
In a viral video, the woman tearfully asked for financial support, saying she was a big fan of the musician and considered him as a son.
How the Kantamanto Market fire happened
The fire erupted at around 1 am and quickly spread across the market, leaving hundreds of traders without their goods.
Reports said almost the entire market was destroyed in the blaze. Many traders rely on Kantamanto Market for their livelihood, and the fire has displaced many people.
The Ghana National Fire Service responded to the fire with five trucks from Makola, Greater Accra, National Headquarters, Flagstaff House, and Parliament House.
Power was cut to the area by the Electricity Company of Ghana to allow firefighting efforts. Three additional fire trucks were later sent from Circle, Trade Fair, and Dansoman, bringing the total number of firefighting vehicles to eight.
After an hour, 13 fire trucks were involved in controlling the blaze.
The cause of the fire and the total damage have not yet been determined. However, the market women have come out to make wild claims, with many citing various conspiracy theories.
