The Nigerian leader told his Ghanaian counterpart that his personal thoughts and prayers as well as those of all Nigerians, were with their Ghanaian brothers and sisters as they mourned their loved ones.

Buhari prayed that Ghanaians, who were known for their extraordinary strength and resilience, would overcome the disaster and rise above losses the country had suffered in recent times from gas-related explosions.

Akufo-Addo thanked Buhari for his comforting and kind words.

No fewer than six persons were reported killed when a tanker exploded at a gas-filling station in the Legon suburb in northwest Accra, Ghana, on Saturday.
