 At about 2 am on Tuesday when the fire started, it was believed to have being caused by power upsurge from the public power supply. The state Fire Service was contacted but could not attend to the situation as supposed.
 The State Fire Service in Ikom complained that they lacked the required facilities that was supposed to be used to combat the fire. The shop owners that were affected complaint bitterly as they lost goods worth millions and also crying to government, philanthropist and also concerned agencies to support them.
 CRS Director General of the State Emergency Management Agency, Mr John Inaku visited the scene and calmed the victims of the fire and said that the state government will try to see how to resolve their problem, as the shop requires total rehabilitation.
