Relatives and friends of people who died in the flood and fire disaster at the Kwame Nkrumah Circle have trooped to various hospitals in Accra to identify their loved ones.
According to reports, there are long queues at 37 Military hospital and Police hospital in Accra as relatives make desperate attempt to find missing relations nearly 48 hours after the incident.
Joy News’ Kwakye Afreh-Nuamah who went to the military hospital reported that most people could not identify their loved ones at the morgue.
“Most of the bodies have been reduced to ashes so only a DNA test will help family members identify their corpse,” he noted.
A distraught man whose sister reportedly drowned in the flood said all efforts to identify the body have proven futile.
He said his late sister who works at the Ministry of Education was going home in a pickup vehicle which was carried away by the floods.
Another man who spoke to Joy News said his friend was part of those who got burnt at the Goil filing station but he has not been able to identify the body.
