‘Where do I start from?’ – Actress Beverly Afaglo in tears as she loses home in fire
Actress Beverly Afaglo is counting her losses after a fire razed down her house in Tema on Monday, August 9, destroying property presumably worth millions of cedis.
The entire building was burnt to ashes as men from the Ghana National Fire Service could not douse the raging fire.
The unfortunate incident happened when Afaglo, who is married to Eugene Baah, popularly known as Choirmaster of hiplife group Praye, and her family were not at home.
Sharing a video of the raging fire on her Instagram page, the actress said the fire lasted for 4hours.
“My house burnt down to ashes within 4hrs…everything gone, my passports, clothes, shoes, bags, wigs, jewelry, perfumes, my furniture, my kitchen everything gone. My kids’ room and all their clothes everything is gone. I’m left with what I wore out that’s all. Thank God there are no casualties but where do I start from?,” she posted

According to her, the fire service got in on time but could not do anything about the fire for over 40minute because they did not have protective gear.
Advocating for proper resourcing of the GNFS, the actress said “I was wondering why they don’t have protective gears for smoke. Why are they not well equipped 😢 gosh. They stood there deliberating and another came and that was the worse, they had to use a generator but it couldn’t start which also took a while, then another came which went through a neighbor’s house to the back of the house and started putting off the fire but it was too late 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 My mum, the kids’ nanny, the kids and I are all left with nothing 😭😭😭😭😭,” she revealed.
“This country let’s stop doing partisan politics and set our priorities right and stop the misplaced priorities. Ghana hmmmmmm,” she added.
