Shop owners at Elejigbo Market, Ejigbo Local Government Area of Osun State have started counting their losses following a fire incident which broke out in the early hours of Saturday.

The shop owners claimed that goods worth millions of naira had been destroyed as a result of the fire.

They appealed to the Osun State government to assist them financially.

An eyewitness of the fire incident, Mr Waliu Ridwan said attempts to reach out to the Ejigbo Fire Service station were unsuccessful as they was no response from them.
