A fire incident has reportedly razed the Obasanjo Trailer Park in Ogere along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway axis of Ogun state, destroying one tanker and several makeshift shops.
The fire was said to have started in one of the shops before spreading to engulf the truck undergoing repairs at the park, on Saturday, June 29.
An eyewitness who spoke to our reporter, said: “The fire started about 11 pm when we were already sleeping. I just heard a loud blast and before we realised what was happening, there was a fire outbreak.
“People around used buckets to fetch water from the gutter to quench the fire because there were no firefighters nearby.”
