Just in: Fire guts another Abuja market

 


Fire




Barely three weeks after the popular Kubwa ultra modern market was gutted by fire, killing at least 10 persons, the Nyanya market in the Federal Capital Territory FCT minister also went up in flames on Tuesday night.


While the source of the fire which started around 8pm was not immediately known.The explosion was believed to have been caused by adulterated kerosene.


The incident sparked panic as traders and shoppers ran for their lives just as the blast lifted up the kerosene tank and landed it on the roof of a shoes and bag shop which was also destroyed.


Our correspondents learnt that the incident occurred shortly before 7pm when traders were trying to close for the day.


The sudden explosion consumed two shops while many roadside traders were also affected.


Though the fire had been put out, objects believed to be woods and food items were still smouldering when our correspondents visited the scene.


The scene was also littered with vegetables, tomatoes, pepper and other produce.
