It destroyed over 50 shops in the Spot M area.
The inferno, which broke out at dawn on Saturday, has left residents in shock and counting their losses.
The fire reportedly started around 2:00 AM, according to eyewitnesses. The witness lamented that approximately 50 wooden and container structures, along with their contents, were completely consumed by the flames.
