Fire on Saturday razed down parts of the second market in the metropolis, Gamboru Market, in Borno State.
This is exactly three weeks after a fire completely razed the largest market in the state, Monday Market, also located in the metropolis.
The PUNCH gathered that the fire flared up at the cooking oil section of the market by 2:30 pm.
Security agents, most of them soldiers, have been deployed to the scene, chasing away a massive influx of people and depriving everyone of entry.
An eye witness told The PUNCH on the phone that it broke out from timber and orange sellers sections.
