Gbenga said the fire didn’t occur at the plank market but a nearby
house but someone made it spread to the market when he threw a cooking gas
cylinder into the plank market. Gbenga said he had come to visit the market for
inspection when he heard a loud explosion and quickly went to his car to pick
his fire extinguisher, but sadly the fire had gone beyond what that could
control.
