Popular Mile 1 Market In Port Harcourt On Fire!





MILE 1 market, the biggest market in PH is currently on FIRE.....So sad 
why do popular markets usually experience fire outbreaks during xmas? 
Popular beliefs say its juju, especially from those who didn't meet up during the year.

All i know is that there are too many fire outbreaks during xmas period and insurance firms are not investigating this trend so it will go on.....

I pray no one was hurt sha

  7. Hmmmm! Na wa o. I don't want to believe it is rituals sha. I know that in my village, we normally experience a lot of bush burning this period too and my dad told me it is because of the harmattan, that fire spreads easily during harmattan period.

  10. Jeez!
    Mile 1 market! Is there any year this market doesn't get razed down? After the last major fire outbreak few yrs ago, they decided to build it with cement not the normal wood & zinc, now this? Ahhh! This is sad.
    The 2storey building on fire in that photo is actually a residential building close to the market, but they have shops on the ground floor. God! See how some people have been rendered homeless.

    1. It's not a harmattan something. How come it's only mile one market that catches fire every Dec is it the only market in ph, I was born n bred in dt town n we know it's a ritual rich people do to exchange wealth of the poor n make them richer. .that market Def needs deliverance. .It usually happens at night wondering y ds yr is different. Mk una stop to de accuse harmattan oh jare. .

    2. I wonder! No be harmattan. This Mile 1 market fire is just something else.

  16. I saw the fire this morning. A lot of people were crying. So many Igbo peeps wey leave their states in the east come hustle for PH own shops there & some don already plan how to raise money so they can go back to their states & spend christmas with family. What a sad christmas. Lord pls console them, Amen.

  22. My grandma used to say some of these market's executives might have embezzled money or are looking for a way to send people away so they can rebuild to ultramodern & make it more expensive e.g tejuosho & mile 2 in lagos
