Businessmen are really losing a lot in lagos. Fire, market closure etc. All these started after elections

I just hope all these fire are natural incidents though

Not a coincidence. Its a deliberately ignited fire courtesy of some Yoruba terrorists.
Nigeria is not one and can never be.


One Nigeria indeed.

I believe it is time the Government should enforce the installation of fire devices and equipment - Sprinklers, extinguishers and alarms in buildings.

Property owners need to consider these things too from the onset.

VIDEO: Firefighters battle raging fire overnight at Lagos market

The Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service says it has brought the fire that gutted buildings at a market on Dosunmu Street, in the Lagos Island area of the state under control.

The agency’s Director, Margaret Adeseye, in a statement, said the fire which was reported at 8:50pm on Saturday involved “a trio of three-storey buildings.” She noted that the timely intervention of firefighters limited the fire to only the topmost floors of the buildings.

“Meanwhile, the cause of the fire is yet unknown as investigation will reveal thereafter while it affected variety of goods that include key lock/cylinder, decoration fittings, Christmas items, among others which cost could be immediately ascertained.

“There is no record of injury nor death as operations enter dampening down,” Adeseye added.

i no say fire dey burn ontop water, but lagos island suppose don create avenue to take dey use the water at their enclose to tackle fire disaster eventhough i know say government no go do anything about that, the people, the community should.. i wont be surprised if drinking water is also a problem there...


First of, the LASG fire fighters is the most swift and efficient in the nation. If you read the article properly, you'd seen where the management of lagos fire service said they contained the outbreak to the only last floors of the buildings it affected while they arrived. That's efficient and effective service if you ask me
Secondly, why do we as Nigerians love to blame the result of our abject irresponsibility on the government all the time? LASG had outlawed the fireworks but people not only spent millions to import it despite but the populace also patronise it as if their YULETUDE wouldn't be completed without it. And here you are, putting blame on the government for the fault of one ID!OT.
The developers of properties for market are at fault too. All those market buildings ain't built with SAFETY and disaster control in mind. Each building is always (literally) kissing the others, left, right, back and front. So there's absolutely no way a fire outbreak or building collapse won't affect another. What's more? None of those building have water sprinklers installed to address fire issues, many don't even get toilet and many that get toilet are built to eject the waste into the drain around it, bringing up environmental pollution within the neighborhood.
Lastly, the shop/store owners ain't helping themselves too. I haven't come across a single shop that take preventive measures really seriously. NO one bothers to procure Fire extinguishers for his/er shop or store, bales of clothes, plastic, paper, wooden products, batteries and other inflammables are heavily stored around electric components in stores or shop , and some still have the gut to lit candles in their stores at nights. Yet the moment the result of these idiotic acts happens, some of you ignore the cause and started causing the government.
We as individuals have to be responsible if we want a good life.

With this comment of yours, it shows you don't know a JACK about the LAGOS you love to critisize. The market and many around it are dominated by the YORUBAS but since it's about a bad thing, then it has to be conspiracy against the IGBOS to you

AN objective mindset look for the slightest opportunity in every problem but a C0ND*MNED mindset only see problems in every opportunity.

Shut up, most Dosomu shops are owned by Yorubas, do not bring your tribal mentality into this matter.
