Legendary Hiplife musician Reggie Rockstone has spoken after a fire broke out at the Accra Tourist Information Centre in the early hours of August 4, 2025.
The incident affected his popular food business, Rockz Waakye, which operates on the exact premises as the Accra Tourist Information Centre opposite Afrikiko.
The fire reportedly started around 1:00 AM and caused huge damage to parts of the facility, including Rockstone’s food outlet.
Personnel from the Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS) arrived at the scene and worked to bring the blaze under control.
While the exact cause of the fire is yet to be confirmed, eyewitnesses suggested it may have started in the kitchen area of Rockz Waakye.
Speaking after the incident in a video shared on his social media, Reggie Rockstone expressed gratitude for the support he has received from fans and the general public since news of the fire broke.
The veteran musician noted that although the damage was heavy, material things can be replaced, and he is thankful for life.
He also commended the GNFS for their swift response, noting that despite criticisms from some sections of society, the officers did their best to save the situation.
According to him, for now, operations at Rockz Waakye will be on hold as management assesses the extent of the damage and works on plans to resume business.
“We would like to begin by thanking all the love that’s being shown. I mean it’s been amazing people coming from everywhere far and wide to come and show love. Yes, there has been a fire, a pretty devastating fire. The good news is that no human being was harmed.
“Material stuff we don’t take with us when we check out so we give praise to God for this. As far as the damage, pretty heavy but we would like to take this time now to thank the Ghana Fire Service,” Reggie Rockstone stated.
