Traders at the Balogun market in Lagos Island have been
counting their losses following the early morning fire outbreak on Monday,
claiming they lost goods worth N30 billion.
In separate interviews, the traders revealed that about 11
containers containing bags, shoes and clothing materials had just been off
loaded into some of the shops that were razed.
Mrs Kadiri Kareem, an attendant in one of the shops, said
that her employer had goods worth N27 billion in his containers.
