Tragedy struck on Saturday as a five storey building in Lagos was razed by fire, destroying property worth millions of naira.
The
five-storey building, known as UBA Plaza, on Bread Fruit Street because
the building houses a branch of the bank on its third floor started
burning around 5:00pm according to those present at the scene.
Uzuoma Aniekwe; a shop owner in the building, said the fire started shortly before 5:00 p.m., and as he got wind of it he started evacuating his goods from inside his shop on the ground floor and according to Aniekwe the fire started on the fourth floor and flowed rapidly to the fifth floor.
As of 08:20 p.m. in the evening of Saturday, firemen
from the Lagos State Fire Service, UBA and Julius Berger Plc., were
still battling the fire according to our reporter who was present at the
scene of the incident as report had it that the fourth and the fifth
floors were mostly affected by the fire.
A senior official with
the Lagos State Fire Service in charge of rescue operation, said the
arrangements products inside the warehouses was too compact for water to
get through which gave rise to the unsuccessful penetration of water
into the core part where the fire started from.
The official said the banking hall on the third floor might have remained intact, as well as many offices on the second floor.
In
order to secure properties worth millions of naira to be looted by
miscreants in the Breadfruit area police and officials of other security
