A strange fire broke out at a one-story building at number 36, Awolowo Way, by the Under Bridge, Computer Village, Ikeja, Lagos.

The raging fire destroyed items worth millions of naira. This new incident took place barely 12 hours after a gas tanker explosion occurred late Tuesday night in the Iju-Ishaga area of the state. According to an eyewitness, the incident occurred at about 9.45 am on Wednesday.

Officials reported no records of casualties in the incident. Affected traders were seen trying to save their wares from the burning building.

Meanwhile, Director, Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service, Mrs. Magaret Adeseye, confirmed the incident, saying, “The situation is under control.” According to Adeseye, “a commercial one-story building gut-fired from the ground floor is used as a store in the buzzing city capital, Computer Village.

“The fire has been confined to the ground floor; it emanated from ongoing efforts to access the seat of fire and curtailed it from spreading to the upper floor and nearby structures within the smoke log environment. “The cause of the inferno is yet to be ascertained. There is no casualty recorded so far.”
