The popular Ebano Supermarket
in the highbrow Lekki metropolis, some shops and the popular Idumota Market,
are among the affected structures.
Two of the affected buildings
were located in the densely-populated Ajegunle area of Lagos, one of which was
the palace of the Baale (traditional ruler).
However, no life was
reportedly lost in any of the incidents. But properties worth millions of naira
were destroyed.
The Ajegunle inferno was said
to have been caused by petroleum products stored in one of the buildings by a
black market dealer. Some occupants of the affected buildings sustained varying
degrees of injuries during the ensuing stampede.
