Business owners at Musaiga Place, near Nakumatt Prestige in Kilimani, are counting huge losses after fire gutted their premises yesterday. The mid-day inferno razed a saloon, barbershop, bar and restaurant. “The fire started a few minutes past noon and I think because of the hot weather, it spread very fast,” a police officer said. “But a fire brigade crew from the county contained it.”Witnesses said the fire originated from Musaiga Restaurant and might have been caused by an electric fault. There were gas cylinders in that restaurant so it exploded like a bomb,” one witness said.
