30 Passengers on board a VIP bus had a close shave with death when the bus en route to the Ashanti Regional capital Kumasi caught fire in a town near Nkawkaw on Sunday, September 17, 2017.
Reports says a bread seller prompted the driver of an unusual smoke billowing out of the car.
As a result the driver stopped and asked all passengers to get off the bus, but as soon as they got down, the back tyre exploded causing the bus to catch fire.
Although the Ghana Fire Service was called to quench the fire, the witness said it took them more than 30 minutes to get to the scene, an eye witness told Peacefmonline.com.
"Over 30 passengers who were on board escaped unhurt. Although the Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS) was called to intervene, they delayed for about 30 minutes to get to the scene and upon their arrival, there was little they could do to rescue the already burning bus," an eyewitness narrated.
“All the passengers who were on board lost their belongings,” he added.

THANKS AND GLORY TO THE LIVING GOD, THIS IS REALLY A MIRACLE
Thanks to God Almighty for being a preserver of lives. Well done to the bread seller too; typical of concerned Ghanaians. The lesson I glean from this is that we should not despise people of any sort, regardless of the state of being and their social status. BUT THE GHANA FIRE SERVICE IS ONE INSTITUTION I DO NOT I ADMIRE ONE BIT. THEY ARE EITHER IN SHORT OF WATER OF THEY JUST NEEDLESSLY DELAY, AND THEY WILL GIVE YOU AN EXPLANATION TO IT. HMMMM. I HAD A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE WITH THEM AT KONONGO. I NEARLY NEARLY INSULTED THEM. LAZY ATTITUDE. HMMM
WE THANK GOD ALMIGHTY FOR THEIR LIVES
Glory be to God for their lives Amen
