The fire, which broke out in the early hours of the morning, has sent shockwaves through the community.<\/p>\n<p>According to eyewitnesses, the fire started around 1:40 am and quickly spread throughout the school&#8217;s library, where the ballot boxes were stored. The cause of the fire is still unknown, but investigations are currently underway to determine the origin of the blaze.<\/p>\n<p>The fire has raised concerns about the safety and security of the ballot boxes, which were being stored at the school. The Ablekuma North constituency is a critical electoral area, and the destruction of the ballot boxes could have significant implications for the electoral process.<\/p>\n<p>Firefighters responded quickly to the scene and worked tirelessly to bring the fire under control. Despite their best efforts, the fire caused significant damage to the school and its contents.<\/p>\n<p>The incident has sparked widespread outrage and concern, with many calling for a thorough investigation into the cause of the fire. The electoral commission has also issued a statement expressing concern about the incident and assuring the public that measures will be taken to ensure the integrity of the electoral process.<\/p>\n<p>As the investigation into the fire continues, the community remains on high alert, eager to learn more about the cause of the blaze and the implications for the electoral process.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This blog is managed by the content creator and not GhanaWeb, its affiliates, or employees.
