One person is reportedly dead after a gas explosion at the premises of the Ministries branch of Zenith Bank in Accra, capital of Ghana.
The explosion left one person in critical condition and another suffering minor injury.
It is unclear what caused the blast.
However, an Accra-based Citi News source indicated that the deceased and the critically injured person, both welders, were engaged to dismantle a garbage container within the premises of the bank when their cylinders exploded in the process.
The third victim, an Uber driver, driving on the nearby road, was caught in the explosion.
The remains of the deceased had been deposited at the Police Hospital mortuary while the injured had been conveyed to the 37 Military Hospital, also in the nation’s capital.
