City Market Gutted Again

City Market Gutted Again

Barely three weeks after the threatened state of public emergency declared by President Edgar Lungu came to an end, fire has again swept through Lusaka’s City Market.

In July this year, fire swept through the Market destroying property worth thousands of Kwacha and eleven suspects were arrested in connection with the inferno.

The Hot FM News crew that rushed to the scene around 01:00 hours found the remaining empty stands in the Southern part of the market engulfed as fire fighters struggled to put out the inferno.

According to eyewitnesses, the inferno started at around 23 hours yesterday and officials are yet to confirm the cause of the fire.

      So, if you have a state of the art fire tender then you will be able to quench all types of fires anywhere anytime?
