Timeless Update earlier reported a fire outbreak at the Oba Lipede Ultra Modern Market in Kuto, Abeokuta, around 10 PM on Saturday. The blaze caused significant damage to several shops and stalls, resulting in a substantial loss for many traders.

Senator Shuaib Afolabi Salisu, representing Ogun Central, visited the scene to commiserate with the affected traders and assess the extent of the damage. The Senator’s visit aimed to show solidarity with the victims and understand the situation first-hand.

Eyewitnesses reported that the fire spread rapidly due to the highly flammable goods stored in many of the shops. Firefighters arrived promptly and battled the blaze for several hours before bringing it under control. Fortunately, no casualties were reported.

In his address, Senator Salisu expressed his heartfelt sympathy to the traders who lost their goods and assured them of his support. He emphasized the need for improved safety measures in markets to prevent future occurrences.

The exact cause of the fire is still under investigation, but preliminary reports suggest it might have been due to gas leakages. The Senator called for a thorough investigation to determine the cause and prevent similar incidents in the future.

Timeless Update will continue to provide updates on this developing story.
