Ochanga, the second largest market in the town was razed as the fire burnt through dozens residential buildings and commercial premises.
Hundred of vehicles were also touched as the fire moved with petrol flowing down the road.
Police patrol teams have cordoned off the area to prevent hoodlums from taking advantage to loot while effort is still ongoing to put off the fire.
Meanwhile,a yet to be identified woman and her baby caught up by the inferno and burnt beyond recognition were rushed to Toronto hospital but certified dead by a medical doctor while receiving treatment.
The level of loss cannot be put together this moment but there are fears that casualty may be more.
