Vivid Imagination, one of Nigeria’s oldest and most popular fashion brands which lost millions of naira in an early morning fire incident last week has reopened for business.
Located in Falemi House, Obanikoro, Lagos, the fashion outfit which has been in business for over thirty years said it decided to reopen immediately because of the barrage of enquiries from its clients.
According to the MD/CEO, Mr Godwin Mekwuye “Though the loss was monumental, we have to reopen to serve our customers, many of who had been worried that this setback could have adversely affected our operations and made us close shop.
He also thanked everyone for the outpouring of love shown after the incident “I wish to thank everyone who visited, called or prayed for us after the unfortunate incident, the expression of empathy was really overwhelming. I got calls and tests from people I did not even know. It was an indication that we are touching a lot of lives and thus, we cannot disappoint them by closing shop for long. Those who reached out actually strengthened us and God will bless them all”.
Mr Mekwuye stated that he was confident that from the ashes of the fire will arise a bigger and better Vivid Imagination. “We are optimistic that the future ahead will be brighter than the past”

Vivid Imagination, one of Nigeria’s oldest and most popular fashion brands lost millions of naira today following an early morning fire that engulfed its main store and factory located at Falemi House, Obanikoro, Lagos.

The fire which must have been caused by a power surge started at about 2am, raged for hours before it was put out by men of the Lagos State Fire Service assisted by some well-wishers..

By the time the dust had settled, the store, which is home to the company and client’s fabrics, clients’ ready-to-be-delivered outfits, ready-made clothes, shoes, accessories and documents, was completely razed while at the factory, virtually all the machines were burnt. Another office on the premises was also affected by the fire, where the roofcompletely caved in..

An official statement from the Management, signed by the Managing Director, Mr. Godwin Mekwuye, which was made available to us read:

“We wish to announce that early this morning there was afire incident at our company that vastly affected our store and factory. The damage done by this incident was phenomenal because it affected over thirty years of the brand’s history and memories as well as hundreds of millions naira worth of goods and equipment.

“This is a very difficult time for us as we begin to investigate the cause or causes of this disaster, but we assure our clients’ that the process of revival will begin immediately and we would ensure that this setback will not affect our time-tested efficiency and qualitative service delivery”

If you have read that the marriage of His Imperial Majesty, Oba Enitan Adeyeye Ogunwusi and his wife, Olori Wuraola has crashed, it is nothing but a big lie.

According to Palace Sources, “it is a wicked rumour being spread by those who are not happy at the joy and laughter that has enveloped the life of His Majesty”

We were told that the Ooni and wife, since they got married had not quarreled to the extent of her leaving the palace or they being separated.

An online platform (not www.thebossnewspapers.com) had alleged that the pair who got married in a lavish ceremony were no more but our team has now confirmed that the couple had just returned from a trip to London and were even in Abuja together yesterday.

“What will people gain from this kind of fake news, to draw attention to their site, it is terrible and despicable” A high ranking Chief, close to the Ife monarch, told us on phone.

Our attempt to speak directly to the monarch was unsuccessful, while calls to his Press Secretary, Moses Olafari were not connecting.
