In the early hours of Monday, September 23, 2024, a massive fire broke out at Akute Market in Ogun State, engulfing numerous shops and destroying goods valued at millions of naira.
The inferno, which began near the Akute Bus Stop, rapidly spread to several other shops. Ogun State firefighters arrived swiftly and battled tirelessly to extinguish the flames, ultimately bringing the fire under control.
Although the exact cause remains uncertain, preliminary investigations suggest the fire was triggered by a power surge, which quickly fueled the destructive blaze across the bustling marketplace.
