Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Some squatters at Mensah Guinea, a settlement behind the Art Centre, gutted by fire last week have started rebuilding their structures. <\/b><\/p>\n

The residents, who were seen busily arranging cement blocks and wood to commence rebuilding, said they did not have any alternative place to sleep.<\/p>\n

The Sunday morning fire outbreak saw about 150 wooden structures razed.<\/p>\n

When the press visited the fire scene, it observed that most of the burnt wares had been moved to make way for the rebuilding of new structures.<\/p>\n

Mr Issac Lamptey, a victim of the fire outbreak, said they felt neglected because no benevolent person or public official paid them a visit.<\/p>\n

\u201cAre we not part of the country? Nobody has paid us a visit since the fire destroyed our houses. We feel very sad because we are really confused, and we do not even know where to go after here,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Kojo Fosu, another victim, a building contractor, who is out of job, said he was staying at a friend\u2019s place because his structure was consumed by fire.<\/p>\n

The victims said they did not contact any authority before rebuilding because they were homeless.<\/p>\n
