A
fire
outbreak
at
the
Kwashieman
Cluster
of
Schools,
where
the
disputed
Ablekuma
North
ballot
papers
are
stored
has
raised
concerns
amongst
Ghanaians
The
incident,
which
occurred
late
Monday,
drew
swift
attention
from
the
Ghana
National
Fire
Service
(GNFS),
who
successfully
extinguished
the
flames
before
the
fire
could
spread
further.
However,
despite
their
efforts,
some
damage
was
caused
to
the
facility
and
its
contents.
Details
surrounding
the
exact
cause
of
the
fire
remain
unclear,
but
the
presence
of
disputed
ballot
papers
at
the
site
has
sparked
speculation
and
concern
among
the
public
and
political
figures.
Electoral
officers
and
security
personnel
are
expected
to
conduct
investigations
to
ascertain
whether
the
fire
was
accidental
or
deliberate.
The
Kwashieman
Cluster
of
Schools,
which
served
as
a
storage
location
for
the
sensitive
electoral
materials,
is
now
the
focus
of
attention,
with
fears
that
any
damage
to
the
ballot
papers
could
compromise
the
ongoing
electoral
processes
in
the
Ablekuma
North
constituency.
