Hi Guys, Yesterday around 8:30pm, there was a fire incident at the Serre kunda Market. Little or no damages were reported by market officials. The fire was put off within an hour by fire-fighters. police and soldiers armed with guns have sealed the market, even stall owners are not allowed in until later this morning when business men can go in to see the actual damage cause by the fire. The cause of the fire outbreak is unknown. I went to the market last night around 8:45pm but I was not allowed to pass through as a police man told me "....Sallah we won't allow anybody in 'cause we don't want looting..". Even the traffic was diverted to another way. This important market has suffered similar incidents and on several occasions it coincides with very important events like the Nation's independence. This time less than a week before tobaski. Watch out for more info.
