Fire razes Mile 12 Market in Lagos

Descriptive purpose only Descriptive purpose only

Fire has razed the popular Mile 12 Market in Lagos in the early hours of Thursday, February 13, 2020.

Traders are currently battling with how to rescue their wares as they call on the state fire service to come to their aid.

The cause of the fire is yet to be ascertained as at the time of filing this report.

This comes just days after Pastor Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God stated that God told him that Nigeria will experience more fire outbreaks after some markets were gutted by fire.

Speaking at the February Holy Ghost Service of his church, Pastor Adeboye stated that the fire outbreaks experienced in January 2020, are nothing compared to what God said would happen later on.

He said, “At the beginning of this year, you heard me say that the Lord said that on the international scene, there would be fire outbreaks, flood, storms, earthquakes, volcanoes, that what we saw in the past was child’s play. If you follow the news all over the world, you can see what is already happening.

“I told you at that time that Nigeria is part of the international scene; we are part of the world. If you look at what happened in January, just one month, the number of fire outbreaks, houses burnt, markets burnt, government houses burnt, fire outbreaks near this airport and that airport.

“If the Lord says we haven’t seen anything yet, then we need to pray.”
