What would have been a major fire
disaster in Lagos State was averted Sunday when people joined hands to
put out a fire outbreak that would have consumed the official quarters of Lagos
State Deputy Governor, Mrs. Adejoke Orelope-Adefulire.
An electrical spark from the room of the Special Assistant (Media) to the deputy governor, Mr. Tunde Abatan, was said to have snowballed into a fire that was threatening to spread to other buildings in the expansive compound

The incident occurred barely one week
after an explosion at a fireworks’ warehouse at Jankara Market, Isale-Eko area
of Lagos Island, caused an inferno that killed one person and left several
others with varying degrees of injuries. In addition, 15 buildings and 40 cars
were destroyed.
It
was gathered that there was no casualty during the fire outbreak at the deputy
governor’s house, which was caused by an electrical fault at about 1.30pm.
When contacted, the Information Officer, National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), South-west Zone, Mr. Ibrahim Farinloye, confirmed the incident, adding that the fire was caused by an electrical fault.

He said: "I truly can't say the
extent or level of the fire, but the federal and state fire services are there
working to put it out."
Speaking
on the incessant rate of fire incident in the state, he said all
flame-absorbent objects should be properly disposed off to avoid
fire outbreak.
Farinloye also said children should be warned against mismanagement of fire, while parents and guardians should ensure that their wards are prevented from engaging in wild fire exercise as it can get out of hands and spread to residential houses.

"Fire is friendly when managed
properly but an utter enemy when mismanaged," he added.
A source said contrary to claims that
the fire happened at the main building in the compound housing the deputy
governor, it happened at the boys’ quarters behind the main house.
He said: "The fire was not in
the main house but in one of the rooms in the boys’ quarters behind the deputy
governor's house.
"The room in question belongs to
the Special Assistant (Media) to the deputy governor, Mr. Tunde Abatan. The
fire was caused by an electric spark.
"It probably would have been a
big issue but for the timely response of people that were around. I fear what
would have been the case if the fire had happened on a week day when they might
have all gone to work."

ReplyDeleteLúc này ánh mắt ngân long lại đặt lên người Vương Lâm.
Vương Lâm không chút do dự, huyết vụ tán ra, thân thể hạ xuống, chỉ để lại huyết vụ trong không trung cho ngân long hút đi. Ngân long biến mất, Vương Lâm cũng rơi xuống mặt đất.
Hắn nhìn ngân long biến mất, trong mắt dần dần lộ vẻ tỉnh táo, tùy ý ngồi vào trong một hồ máu. Mấy người đang ngồi trong đó lập tức đứng dậy, nhanh chóng rời đi.

Vương Lâm một mình ngồi ở đó, trong mắt vẫn duy trì vẻ thanh tỉnh, khóe miệng nhếch lên, lộ vẻ mỉm cười. Ý cười càng lúc càng đậm, cuối cùng hắn cười vang. Tiếng cười của hắn vang vọng khắp thế giới màu máu này. Những người nơi này cũng chẳng ai thèm để ý tới hắn, vẫn tập trung hấp thu sát niệm!
