A fire outbreak at Subway destroyed shops and goods worth millions of naira at Eda Plaza, a building materials market located opposite Chida Hotel in Jabi, Abuja. According to an eyewitness who spoke on the condition of anonymity, an alarm was raised around 3:00 am when his brother-in-law, who owns two shops and a packing store within the affected plaza, received a distress call from a colleague at the market. The eyewitness, however, said there were no casualties in the incident.
