There was a fire outbreak at Great
Nigeria Insurance House at Balogun Market in Lagos this morning. Eye witnesses said the fire started around 5am from one of the top floors. The
cause of the fire outbreak is unknown but people suspect that it may be as a result of electrical fault. The building accommodates various businesses, including banks.
On the ground were National Commission
for Migrants and Internally Displaced Persons (NCFRMI), National
Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), LASEMA, and the Lagos State Fire
Service as well as Federal Fire Service to quench the fire, and evacuate
affected persons. More pics after the cut

"And really thought I'd have had this up since morning"...bcos she be winch, or she carry satellite for head.
ok... this building got burnt some few years ago and another building on balogun street got burnt last year or so, the truth is, as usual, someone is not doing something right... let us identify these root causes, and train our people as well as build properly.
electrical lines should be properly constructed during the building phase and our people have to learn to stop tampering with power lines.
we have a long way to go
Still on fire oooooooooo only Oluwa can help
