Some shops are said to have been affected by the inferno.
It was gathered that the fire started at about 1:00 a.m. on Monday, and the cause of the fire is yet to be known.
The Anambra State fire service is on the ground trying to extinguish the fire.
The chief firefighter in Anambra state confirmed the incident, saying that he promptly deployed his men to the area when he was alerted.
He said: “The fire started around 1 am, and I quickly deployed my men there.
