Authorities are expected to launch a full investigation into the cause of the collapse, amid rising concerns over building safety and structural integrity in the area.

Meanwhile, Hafiz, a resident of Accra Newtown who witnessed the collapse of the building, told Citi FM what transpired.

In a Facebook video, he said he and some friends were walking on the street when they heard a loud noise. He recounted that the area immediately became so dusty that they could not see each other.

However, they could hear each other, so they continued speaking until the dust had cleared. Hafiz then explained that they moved closer to the scene to ascertain what had happened.

While the emergency responders were busy rescuing the worshippers who were trapped in the rubble, some politicians, including the Greater Accra Regional Minister, Linda Obenewaa Akweley Ocloo and the Mayor of the Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA), Michael Kpakpo Allotey, visited the site.

The Minister for the Interior, Muntaka Mohammed Mubarak, who was present at the scene, disclosed that about 20 persons were rescued from the devastating school building collapse, confirming three deceased persons comprised one male and two females.
