Seven family members including a newly born baby have been burnt to death in a fire outbreak at Big Apple in the Gomoa Budumburem District of the Central Region (closer to Kasoa)
The victims who died in the fire have been identified as a headteacher and his wife, together with their four children and house help.
The fire which started at about 5:30 am on Saturday, 15 January 2022 spread through the one-bedroom flat apartment which the family resided.
