THE NATION REPORTERS reports that fire has razed POWA Plaza in Jos road, Lafia, Nasarawa State.

Property worth millions of naira have been destroyed following the fire outbreak.

An eye witness said that the fire outbreak was caused by an electricity spark in one of the shops around 1am on Tuesday morning.

“More than seven shops were affected. A tailoring shop, a boutique, a solar shop and other big businesses were burnt to ashes.

“I wonder how the business owners will survive after these huge loss that they have encountered. The government should see how to help them out of the situation.”
