Traders and shop owners at the Mallam Market who had their wares consumed by fire have appealed to President Akufo-Addo for support.

The traders who could not salvage any of their property in the fire that raved their shops yesterday [Tuesday], want the president to support them. It is not clear what caused the fire but an investigation has been launched into the matter.

Traders who were affected told Nyankonton Mu Nsem they received information at 2:00am Wednesday and rushed to the scene only to find out their investment has been consumed by the fire.

The MCE for the area, Mr Patrick KB Kumor, visited the scene with the assembly member and communications director for the constituency, Prince Agyeman Offei to have first hand information.

The MCE assured victims of government support.
