Just as residents across the Lagos Mainland and other parts of Lagos State, Nigeria celebrates the auspicious occasion of Eid-il-Fitri, their counterparts in Onike, in Lagos Mainland, were thrown into panic and confusion following a fire incident which occurred in the area on Friday, June 15, 2018.
According to the operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) attached to the Lagos State Police Command, the incident occurred at No. 21 Akintunde Street off Onike round about, Yaba, Lagos Mainland, at about 12 noon.
The inferno razed parts of the building leaving occupants of the building to scamper for safety. Luckily, no life was lost in the incident.
According to eye witnesses on the scene, a distress call was made to officials of the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA) who immediately mobilized to the scene.
The combined team of the RRS, LASEMA and Lagos State Fire Service, however, salvaged the situation after helping put out the fire.
