5 people have been
confirmed dead and 68 people pulled out alive from the multi-storey department
store that collapsed in Ghana yesterday
A spokeswoman for
Ghana's National Disaster Management Organization, said structural weakness had
caused the collapse of the Melcom store in Accra's Achimota neighbourhood which
was opened early this year and collapsed shortly before the store was due to
open for business yesterday morning. Over a 100 people were in the 5-storey
complex when it collapsed suddenly.
Rescue efforts is
still going on at the site as workers say that they can hear noises from under
the rubble and can see hands of people trapped. Sad!
