Fire guts shanties at Makoko, visible from Third Mainland bridge (Photos/Video)

This evening, a raging fire licked through wooden shanties at Oko baba in Ebute Metta, Lagos, destroying houses and properties in its wake. The fire is visible from Third Mainland Bridge. See more photos below

 

#MakokoFire… This seems like such a hopeless situation. I doubt if any fire service truck can get there and if anything can be saved! ???? #Fire #Emergency #Lagos #naijalog
