The Vice President was accompanied by Greater Accra Regional Minister Linda Ocloo, Interior Minister Muntaka Mohammed-Mubarak, Inspector-General of Police Christian Tetteh Yohuno, and other officials. During the visit, affected persons received assurances of government support while authorities continue investigations into the cause of the fire and the scale of damage.
