An early morning fire has engulfed the popular Dei-Dei Abuja Furniture Makers Association (AFMA) market located at the heart of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja.

The chairman of Dei-Dei new site AFMA, Mr. Daniel Akhigbe Ebhodaghe, in an interview with journalists, Monday, said he received a phone call about 4.3am on Thursday, alerting him about the fire incident at their market shops.

He said the inferno razed several shops, including machineries, generators, and other accessories worth about N300 million.


He further said the incident did not record any casualty but properties were lost, as several shops were razed down during the inferno.

He said the cause of the fire was yet unknown as it occurred at night when the market remained closed, adding that the incident had been reported to the police and investigation begun to ascertain the cause and extent of damage.

One of the victims and the treasurer of the association, Mr. Paul Emiantor, while counting their losses following the mysterious fire that burnt down their shops, said there should be thorough investigation so that appropriate lessons could be learnt.

“It is a disaster, because I don’t know what to tell our customers who have given us work to do when they come asking for their property. As I’m talking to you now, I don’t have ten Kobo with me; I what well-meaning Nigerians to come to our aid,” he pleaded.

On his part, the legal adviser to the association, Barr David E. Aigbefoh, appealed to the federal, state, local governments and organisations to assist the victims of the fire incident, given the damage and loss suffered by the victims.

Barrister Aigbefoh disclosed that about 24 heavy duty machines were burnt down during the fire incident and called on government to mobilise the fire service to perform optimally, advising for stringent measures against any individual or group that would carry out activity resulting into any inferno.

Show me one Yoruba land owner or landlord that gave land to igbos for free.

They prefer to sell their lands to igbos because igbos pay more.

Now, you are uttering rubbish after selling off your birth right.

I challenge you to go and collect the land from them.

Ole oloju kokoro.

nairanaira12:
They bought those lands from you and paid in full.

I dare you to go and try to collect it back. . It is a court presided over by a Yoruba man that will throw the case out of court.

Cantonese:
Sorry. You hear?

Dem too pass you.

3. All the electrical/electronic appliances within and around you.
4. The fan that blows that your ozuguzugu like head.
5. The plumbing things that give you water
6. The clothes and shoes you wear
7. The korope/okada that carry you around
8. The building materials used for the house where you live.
9. The torch light that enables you see inside that your dark one room apartment.
10. The medicines that save you from the die wey you for don die since.
11. Dem still be your landlord.
12. The bed you lie on; the mat you sleep on, na dem.
13. The toothbrush and paste to clean your dirty teeth, na dem.
14. Shishi you no get. Dem still dey pay school fees for you.
15. Fight, you no fit.

With the above, I put it to you Mr. Baba Sope that you are deeply jealous and aggrieved. They are far greater than your miserable self. They have been ruling you for ages, you MUNTULA.

Urchins !!! This lady is Yoruba and is the first female senator for FCT Abuja. The indigenous people are not on social media tormenting Yorubas to leave or accusing Yorubas of trying to own them.

Urchins use your senses, all we want is a better Nigeria that’s all. I know most of you have no responsibility, so this hardship no too reach una.

Shoutout to the Yorubas who’ve stood for what’s right.

Devil1Messenger:
So igbos in Lagos can't vote again in their state of residence?
Nigeria constitution permit u to vote and be voted for in any state u choose to live.
If u don't want igbos to campaign or vote for a candidate in ur Yoruba region, tell the Nigeria govt that u want ur separate yoruba country.
Simple

BurialGround:
We're igbos we'll remain rich till we die.

Hunger doesn't make us sell our properties.

We create wealth irrespective of who's the president.

GOD THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME AN IGBO MAN.

BurialGround:
Have you paid your rent to your Igbo landlord?

nairanaira12:
Whatever.

Igbos owe you nothing. They aren't staying in lagos for free. They don't have to obey you or follow anything you say. They aren't your slaves.

You didn't do anything for them. They pay for everything they own in lagos.

Yorubas aren't accommodating. We only love the money.

madapcmod:
You want me to show you yorubas comments on Facebook? How they were insulting Edo people, claiming Thieffnubu want to save them and make Edo be like Lagos? If you want evidence, I will dig them and keep you shut for ever

madapcmod:
Are you daft or forgetful?

Did Thieeeefnubu not broadcast to Edo people during the last Guber poll to elect pastor ize iyamu of APC and reject Gov.Obaseki of PDP? Did he not fly private jet loaded with money to Edo to be sharing that made Edo people reject him with the "Edo no be lagos mantra "

Devil1Messenger:
But ACN founded by a Yoruba man can win an election in Edo 😁
Tinubu is destroying u people for his selfish interest

BurialGround:

Konwan:
I am blessed beyond measure already. Keep kissing the behind of your oppressors while I am living my best life in the US enjoying my dual citizenship. Rot in hell, miserable piece of scumbag.

Konwan:
And you didn't see Yakubu's promotion and assurance to Nigerians about the effectiveness of BVAS that will guarantee free, fair, and credible election throughout 2022?

He prompted BVAS and Irev and then reverted to manual computation and collation of results after receiving N306 Billion naira. Cyber Warriors needs to into get into their business to expose these criminals.

You're definitely suffering from selective amnesia . You're enabling political criminality and rascality destroying our beautiful nation🤬🤬🤬🤬

Your life will be shadowed by darkness and you'll never see progress in life because that's the choice you made for your life.

helinues:
