The Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service says it extinguished the spread of a fire incident at a construction site in the Ibeju Lekki area of the state in the early hours of Friday.

The Director of the Lagos Fire service, Margaret Adeseye, in a statement said the fire broke out around 9:48 am at the Craneburg Construction Site-Yard, old Julius Berger Yard.

The statement reads partly:

“The Fire which involved sets of containers used as store has been curtailed from spreading by the Epe ll Fire Crew of the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service,”

“The materials used for road construction were stacked in the containerized store as dampening down is ongoing to wrap up the operations. There is no injury or death recorded from the incident.”
