    Fire has gutted sections of a storey building housing Ago Medical Centre, off Ago Palace Way, Okota.

    The inferno was caused by a power surge which led to a spark when public electricity power supply was restored.

    The Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA) confirmed the incident in a statement on Saturday.

    LASEMA Permanent Secretary, Dr. Olufemi Oke-Osanyintolu, said the agency had successfully contained the raging fire.

    According to him, the agency activated the state’s emergency response plan and its response team from Oshodi, following distress calls received on its 767/112 Emergency Toll-Free Lines at 18.29hrs on Friday.

    “Upon arrival at 18.50hrs, LASEMA’s Eagle Response Team discovered that sections of a storey building which housed a hospital were being gutted by fire at the aforementioned address.

    “Preliminary investigations conducted by LASEMA’s Eagle Response Team revealed that the immediate cause of the inferno was a power surge which led to a spark when public electricity power supply was restored,” Oke-Osanyintolu said.

    He stated that no lives were lost nor injuries recorded due to the incident.

    He stated that the fire was being contained through collaborative efforts of the LASEMA Response Team Fire Unit and other responders, to prevent it from spreading to adjoining buildings in the area.

    “The fire is still raging and responders are battling to put it off. Response and Recovery Operations are in progress,” Oke-Osanyintolu said.

    He listed emergency responders at the scene as including the LASEMA Response Team, LASEMA Fire Unit, Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service, Lagos Neighbourhood and Security Corps and the Nigeria Police Force.
