This is a really sad day for Ghana, a lesson to be learnt for all developing countries.  Are these buildings getting properly inspected before they open?A 5 story new building is no joke, that is too much of a risk. We see new multistory buildings popping up everywhere in Tanzania as well, hii iwe fundisho kwetu wote.
