Gas Explosion in Ghana
The night of October 7, 2017, will forever remain in the minds of many residents of the Ghanaian capital Accra as the night when all hell broke loose. A rather quiet night suddenly turned chaotic after two loud explosions at a natural gas depot in northeast Accra sent a huge fireball into the sky, forcing terrified residents to flee their homes.
The incident, which happened at the Atomic Junction roundabout area at around 7:30 pm, left seven people dead and many others with serious burns. The initial explosion happened at the state-owned gas depot and spread to a nearby petrol station, which caused the second explosion.
Statistics show that Ghana has suffered eight deadly gas explosions between 2014 and 2017, raising concerns over the safety standards of gas depots and petrol stations across the country.
