Fire Guts Mogadishu Cantonment, Abuja by oshozondii: 10:16am On Feb 12, 2020
An early morning fire Wednesday gutted the mammy market located at the Mogadishu cantonment popularity known as Abacha barracks in Abuja.

Details of how the fire started is not immediately known but men of the Federal Capital Territory(FCT), Fire Service and their counterparts from the Nigerian Navy and the Nigerian Air Force(NAF), were on ground to put off the fire.

Mogadishu, cantonment located along the Abuja/Nyanaya road was sometime ago attacked by the Boko Haram terrorists who planted an Improvised Explosive Device(IED), that killed scores of people and injured several
others.

Already the military personnel have deployed men of the Nigerian army, police, Navy, and Airforce to the tri-service barracks to maintain law and order.

Fire fire in our country. Give us plenty water make we quench the fire. That song that year.

The fire outbreak nowadays is due to the season.
Everywhere is dry.
Even pockets dry too

This is certainly another sad and sinster development.

One can be forgiven if one jumps to the conclusion that Nigeria is literally on fire.

However, special thanks to all hands on deck for the timely intervention.

Seriously, government should have in place first responders the way we have road safety and civil defense to handle such emergencies.

You ..yes..you reading this .. why aren't you making plans to leave this hellhole? Is this the news you want your kids to read everyday? explosions are no longer strange to Nigerians anymore because it's a daily occurrence.
Is this life you want your kids to become accustomed to?

Why aren't you making good plans to leave this doomed nation? You probably love it here but I demand a concrete reason for why you want your kids to go through the same desensitization to what a good life actually should be like? They don't deserve this and I'm pleading on their behalf. Shithole indeed

The problem is simple.

Markets in Nigeria are fire hazards. No fire fighting equipment, no fire drills, and most of the buildings are not built with fire retardant materials.

Then most traders don;t insure their shops, which is why many of them cry when fire strikes.
