Massive fire outbreak engulfed a timber market at Ogba, an outskirt of Ikeja, Lagos, destroying stocks of timber dealers. The National Emergency Management Agency, (NEMA), Lagos State Emergency Management Agency, and fire fighters were said to have battled for several hours to prevent the fire from spreading.
