“I join those who have sympathized with the owners of the timber shades and building at the Nnewi Timber Market gutted by fire with resultant huge losses. Fire incidents such as these, though not uncommon during the harmattan season are easily avoidable if the proper and statutory safety checks and measures were in place. It is harrowing, regrettable and most unfortunate, that our people will suffer such huge loses in this time of recession. Public safety and infrastructure based on best practices, must be priorities if we must avoid costly incidents such as these. Unfortunately, that is not yet the case, even as pretend that our public utilities are all operational. We need to improves on our public safety operations, especially in terms of emergency responses to accidents, fire and natural hazards.”
