We're not ready. When we're ready to be a real mega city, we will demolish those slums called buildings on Lagos island.

From a neutral point of view, I know that those buildings would have been demolished long ago if not that they belong to the indigens. Lagis island is a mess.

Lots of fuel to aid the fire burning can be sited.


There is no way every single hood won't go down cos fire fifhters can stop the fire except rain fall.

Massive fireworks fire destroys buildings on Lagos Island.

13 buildings so far affected. A building collapsed behind Arise TV's reporter while she was reporting live on air.

A similar fireworks fire in 2012 demolished a building on Lagos Island.
Lithium ion batteries... The worst is, fire fighters cannot stop it until all the energy is released.

Most of these buildings are from the 60s70s,80s and early 90s. Back then landlords wants to use every inch of their land to the max and architects were not as advanced as they are today.

The Nigerian authorities are so slack. The ports and the borders are so porous, no thanks to the perennially corrupt Customs officers and security agencies at the ports.

There is no clear control procedures on the importation and storage of fireworks. Storage should not in any way be located in the thick of residential houses.

These explosions have been a recurring thing.

Its so sad that no one has the intellectual wherewithal to fix Nigeria.

The present criminals in office are worse off

So sad that I got my roots from that beautiful country that has been turned into a hellhole by rotten politicians. It really pisses me off ..
