A resident of the area, Olayiwola Ibrahim, told our correspondent that the three victims were burnt beyond recognition.

He said, “There was a fire outbreak close to Dantata HF Saphadeen in Satelite Town. The family of one of the boys selling black market fuel along the road came to visit him at his business spot as usual.

“Suddenly, there was an explosion in his small store where he normally stored petrol and diesel. The fire was uncontrollable, the wife and two children of the young man burnt to ashes.

“The charred bodies have been taken away under the supervision of the police from Satelite Town Police Station.”
