Officials say at least three people “sustained minor” injuries with the police and fire service personnel arriving at the scene to avert chaos.

Tweeting from the US on an official working visit, president Akufo-Addo decried the poor maintenance culture in the country, urging facility managers to “improve our maintenance culture.”

He also wished the injured “speedy recovery.”

The Accra Mall is a shopping center in Accra, located on the Spintex road adjacent to the Tema Motorway. The mall was commissioned on July 4, 2008. It is one of the most modern shopping malls in West Africa and the first large-scale shopping centre in Ghana.
