The plaza which was formally a Super Cinema, comprised of many shops, churches, textiles and Fabrics, Bureau de Change and Gift Gallery, among others, got up in flames barely one week after similar incident occurred near Tejuosho market in the state.

Following a breaking report by Pulse Nigeria, effort by the Lagos State Fire Service and other emergency services helped in putting out the fire.

Dr Oke-Osanyintolu, Director General of Lagos Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA), revealed that investigation conducted on site indicated that the fire resulted from an electrical surge in one of the shops before escalating to other parts of the plaza.

“No loss of life nor injury has been sustained so far at the scene of the fire where properties worth a fortune have been lost to the inferno,” Oke-Osanyintolu said.
