Fire razes 40 apartments at Police barracks in Lagos

Fire has razed about 40 apartments at the Ijeh Police Barracks in Obalende Lagos state PM News reports. The cause of the fire outbreak is yet to be determined.

This is the same barracks that a police officer died on Friday August 29th after he was pushed down a building by his wife during a fight. The officer died before getting to the hospital while his widow is still in the intensive care unit of an undisclosed hospital.

  19. Thanks for the info LINDA! I actually know someone who lives around the place and he confirmed to me that the affected BLOCK that got razed in the inferno is LINE A, BLOCK 3, IJEH POLICE BARRACKS, OBALENDE, SOUTH WEST, IKOYI, LAGOS. And as regards the police man that died several days back, he also confirmed that it is true. He however said for that case, the man and his wife were fighting and both of them actually fell from the two storey building but unfortunately it was the man alone that died while his wife sustained some serious injuries! May his soul rest in peace! I hope readers here can learn from his sad story and know that violence and fighting doesn't solve marital problems but aggravates it! The President and the Minister of Police Affairs would also need to come to the aid of officers affected by the IJEH POLICE BARRACKS INFERNO by assisting them to resettle on time. GOD HELP US ALL! AMEN!

  41. Something tells me that this is the hand work of govt officials. Give them 3weeks and they will tell u they want to build a mega shopping complex. Look at what happened to Teju Osho mkt, and several markets outside lagos.
