Lome (Togo) Market in Fire

Fire broke out the Lome, Togo Central Market (Assigame) around midnight of the 11th of January, 2013 and at 10:00 am, the fire is still burning. Ghana fire trucks were called from Aflao, Ghana. Nobody appears to have been killed, but many people are angry the Togo fire department does not have equipment to deal with fire.
The market of Kara, 340 km north of Togo's capital Lomé was also wrecked by a fire two days ago. And now in Lome. It is not yet sure whether the two fires were set intentionally or whether it is accidents.
