The top floor of a two-storey hostel housing over 150 students of the Kwadaso SDA Nursing and Midwifery Training College has been destroyed following a fire outbreak at Kwadaso, within the Kwadaso Municipality of the Ashanti Region.
According to some of the students, the incident occurred around 5 p.m. on Sunday, April 20, 2025.
The swift intervention of officers from the Ghana National Fire Service salvaged the situation, thereby preventing the fire from spreading to the ground floor.
The fire destroyed all belongings of the students on the top floor, including mattresses, laptops, provisions, stationery, and other essential items.
No casualties were recorded, as management of the school indicated that some students had gone home for the Easter holidays.
So far, the cause of the fire is yet to be determined by officers from the Ghana National Fire Service, as investigations have begun.
