Government should find lasting solution to this Oko Oba fire that has become a perennial issue.

Fat women everywhere

I don't like fat women

Not again, the economy of this country is not what anybody should loose his or her goods.

I pray they curtail the fire on time.

God have mercy on us, Just hope everything is now under control. Check my signature I produce any kind of cartons. Lagos is my base I waybill to any where In Nigeria.

Thread says Oko Baba.

Title on front page says Oko Oba.

The mods need to modify this.

a lasting solution is to demolish the place. a shanty will always be a fire risk. flammable materials everywhere and careless/carefree occupiers
