The Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA) has suspected foul play in the Thursday night’s fire that razed Kairo Market in Oshodi.

Director General of LASEMA, Dr. Femi Oke-Osanyintolu said the suspicions were based on explosives recovered from the scene of incident.

Giving updates on the incident, Oke-Osanyintolu said: “Joint responders have contained the fire. Initial investigations suggest that some form of explosives/ accelerants were used; indicating some foul play. In a further update issued Friday morning, the LASEMA boss said rescuers encountered some security challenges during the operation, adding that their efforts were sabotaged.“Members of the public sabotaged our efforts by cutting our hoses in the middle to save their individual shops which affected the overall efforts of our personnel and damage to our equipment.“Some members of our team were attacked with several sustaining injuries that required medical attention.

However, the police refuted claims by LASEMA that the fire outbreak was caused by explosives, assuring residents investigation was ongoing.
