“We don’t want the situation where people will take advantage of the fire incident to steal properties and other valuables.

“The situation is under control; we are happy that no life was lost, our men are still there, the fire service operatives are also there.”

In March, a two-storey building housing the Onitsha main market police station and shops selling lace fabrics was razed by fire.
