The University of Ghana’s Commonwealth Hall has been engulfed in flames, a development that has sent shockwaves through social media.
A viral video capturing the blaze has drawn widespread attention.
Student residents have been forced to evacuate, with many voicing their anguish and frustration over the potential damage to their belongings and academic materials.
This tragic incident has resonated deeply with many, coinciding eerily with the ninth anniversary of a devastating flood on Saturday, June 3 2015, that claimed numerous lives and inflicted lasting scars on many individuals at the Kwame Nkrumah Interchange, Accra.
The timing of this tragedy has intensified the emotional response from both the university community and the public.
