The agency through its DG, Dr Olufemi Damilola Oke-Osanyintolu, though, noted that the fire started from one part of the market, and goods were destroyed, but no life was lost and no one was injured in the incident.
Oke-Osanyintolu added that emergency responders comprising the LASEMA team and the Lagos State Fire Service have put out the raging inferno.
Explaining further, the LASEMA boss said a trailer that was caught up in the inferno has also been evacuated from the road to a layby.
