This perennial fire outbreaks in our markets does not cease to amaze me. This is preventable if the government, her agencies or the market associations are ready to put a stop to it. Why should lives and properties be lost to fire all the time. My condolences to the families.

If it's ladipo market, some zombies would have been, APC thugs set our market on fire.
