Millions Lost as Fire Razes Shops in Lekki

Millions of naira lost as fires on Tuesday swept through some shops in Lekki and razed nine.

The timely intervention of the Lagos State Fire Service saved additional 10 shops from being razed.

The inferno occurred at Peace Estate near Ogidan Bus Stop on Lekki/Epe Expressway.

Acting Head of Lagos State Mrs Margaret Adeseye said the firefighters prevented a row of electronic products’ shops from being razed.

She explained that the fire call was received and Lekki Phase 1 Fire Station was immediately deployed to put out the fire.

The inferno, she said, was burning 19 shops of various sizes, where electronic products of different brands are being sold.

“Nine out of the 19 shops were severely burnt while the firemen were able to save 10 among others with properties worth millions of naira amidst the difficult challenges posed by COVID 19 pandemic,” she said.

The fire boss pointed out that the fire was however doused with additional support of a second fire crew of the Lagos State Fire Service and the Federal Fire Service.
