Mr Ibrahim Farinloye, NEMA Acting Zonal Coordinator, South-West Zonal Office, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that the fire started about 4 a.m. on Wednesday.

According to Farinloye, the shops contained vehicle air conditioners, engine oil, paints and other car accessories.

He told NAN that because most of the accessories were inflammable, firefighters had a hectic time putting out the fire.

He said that no one was trapped or died in the incident.
