The management of the Ikeja City Mall is very grateful to the great people of Lagos State and the emergency services that responded to the fire incident that occurred this morning (15 January 2013) at about 11:15 in one of the stores, Mr. Price.
The fire, according to Mr. Steve Idornigie the Operations Manager of the ICM, Mr. Price store manager reported the incident to him and emergency staff responded immediately.
On what caused the fire, Mr. Steve said from preliminary investigations, it seems the fire emanated from an electric power point. However investigations, he said, are ongoing to ascertain the cause of the fire.
“The process of evacuation was swift,” he said. “The customers
conducted themselves in an orderly fashion and allowed the emergency services
people to do their work.”
“In terms of damage, no goods were lost neither was anyone
injured. However some clothes got wet as a result of the water from the men of
the Federal Fire Service. We would like to thank them for their professionalism
and valiance, along with the men of Lagos State Emergency Service, National
Emergency Agency, the Lagos State Traffic Management Agency and the Civil
Defense.”
Mr. Idornigie assured the customers and tenants that Ikeja
City Mall would be reopened for business at 3pm today.
