You see that particular woman shouting "Negodu shopu " in side the second video, trust me, that woman is extremely happy.

People should strive to have insurance because of cases like this they have no control over.

What a painful situation!!!
Especially during this period of hardship!

This is likely due to negligence of one of the shop owners

Fire out break, this raining season ? Too bad

Sorry for the goods lost. If it were to be in Lag o.. regardless can we all blame Tinubu for this?

Who should have insurance? Such policies won’t sell there.. wrong market target for any insurance advisor..

This is not a country, but just a geographical entity.
