- A witness identified as Muideen Azeez told TheCable that the fire that burned shops at Aleshinloye market in Ibadan, the Oyo state capital, was caused by an electric spark in a shop where plastics are sold.
“The fire started in the shop and caught the goods that were offloaded off a trailer and spread to other shops,” Azeez said.
He said first responders tried to contain the inferno to no avail.
Another witness said the fire would have been contained if the fire service centre in the market was functional.
“See fire centre here but no water, no trucks. Nothing is working. We don’t have government presence here, all they do is just to collect money and tax from us,” a witness lamented.
