Burning Tejuosho market
Goods worth millions of naira were destroyed on Tuesday, as fire broke out at the popular Tailor Market behind the ultra-modern Tejuosho Market, Yaba, Lagos State.
Director of the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service, Adeseye Magaret, who confirmed the incident, said the fire occurred at the clothing and tailoring materials section of the market.
She said, “We received a distress call at 4:01 pm and our men from Ilupeju and Isolo Fire Stations, as well as the Federal Service from Ojuelegba led by ACFS Adebanjo, arrived at the scene. The fire is under control as damping down is in progress.”
