Lagos state Governor, Babatunde Fashola, yesterday visited the site of
the boxing day firecracker explosion that razed about 15 buildings and
killed an 11 year old boy.
Fashola said he plans to punish the owner of the store on Oko Awo street
where the fire crackers were stored.
“In order to make quick business, we have lost a life, we lost property
and all of us are in danger. All of these items are under one form of
prohibition or the other
and we have men and women at our various entry and exit points. How did
they get in? How
did they enter? Who imported them and who cleared
them? Who approved them to come in. Those are very serious issues we
must also ask ourselves" Fashola said
Lagos state is one of the states that has banned the use of fire
crackers
