There is an ongoing fire outbreak at the Yayaabatan area of Ogba, Ikeja area of Lagos state. According to eyewitness the fire was generated by a petrol laden fuel tanker offloading in an NNPC filling station along collage road.
The fire sparked fear among residents of the area who came out in Large numbers with total disregard of all Lockdown measures from social distancing to the compulsory use of facemask in public palaces.
It is even more worrisome to note that Ogba Ikeja area of Lagos state is among the areas with high number of COVID-19 patients.
At the moment, security agencies are still scanty and obviously overwhelmed by the situation.
The Fire that started around 1 pm from an NNPC Filling Station where a tanker was discharging fuel, destroyed about Sixty Vehicles and Other Property worth Billions of Naira
