Photos: Gov Fashola visits burnt section of Balogun market

Lagos state governor, Babatunde Fashola earlier today paid a visit to the section of Balogun market that was gutted by fire yesterday January 12th. While sympathizing with the traders, the governor advised them to insure their properties so that in situations such as a fire outbreaks, their insurance would cover their losses. More pics after the cut...

Are you for real? Asking why he went to a popular market that gotten burnt to see things for himself and identify with them, at such a time. What were you asking again?

Thank you my sister. Whenever they want to take over a market, they first burn it down. Then they will take over and construct another one that will be waaaaaay out of the reach of the former occupants. Why is it that fire keeps moving from one market to another. Just be watchful and see what will happen to this market. People are just too gullible and are being taken for a ride.

Unknown said...

I just hope they will be able to bear the loss! So sad.

A great Leader!

On Gbajumo street there are these sheds along the road. Right on the road...these sheds are semi permanent structures cemented onto the road. Gbajumo was partly affected as its a street behind Balogun and those affected houses could have been salvaged much earlier if the Fire Engines could access the road.
Shop owners on Gbajumo have lobbied and petitioned tire. No hope, I pray this incident will open the governments eyes to the risk involved in a lack of thoroughfare especially in a place of heavy congestion as found on Lagos Island. Its not about the revenue please, lives and property are also of importance Mr Governor and Government.

Unknown said...

I really pity those traders whose goods gutted in fire n also appreciate the governor for showing concern

Unknown said...

I feel 4 those wu lost der properties.May God c dem tru.

Very true. Sabotage, clear and simple. See what happened to yaba market. The same trend, now they built a huge plaza there that's too expensive for marketers to acquire, only the rich women. Such a shame. Mac10...

Unknown said...

Honestly....someone like Fashola is what we need in this country.....this man is hard working...if this man rules this country....changes will b visible...

Unknown said...

Nice of him, my adorable governor
I wish he would support them financially cos I believe some of them never insecure their goods, as little as he can is enough for these terrible outbreak

He looked so pained, he understands... I hope his successor will happily continue from where he stopped and put smiles on people's faces.

God will surely bless you. It's Tinubu and Fashola that know what they have been planning about markets in Lagos. People should not be carried away by this feigned sympathy. Let's just watch out and see what would happen next in this drama series.

Good governor, I hope he'll render some help in addition to his advise.

Anonymous said...

I ve always said that the average ibo is too uncivilized, primordial and unsociable to be part of a society. An example is this ibo boy(Eze). What sort of question did he just ask. Anyway, your ancestors lived in a society where every man is an 'Obi' in his compound so I do not expect you to understand the meaning of commiserate.

MY TURN said...

Fashola is a leader not a BOSS... He is truly a man of the people that big nose in Abuja needs to learn a few things

Abdul musa said...

@theconspiracytheorists, its possible, but where's the proof? The fact that you feel this way does't mean its true, it also doesn't mean anyone is gullible. You could be the one being played by your busy minds!

Unknown said...

Oh ... he cares now.
