Personnel of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), attached to the Oshodi – Isolo Divisional area of the Lagos State Command, about 22:30hrs on Wednesday, 22nd September, 2021, saved the day as they swiftly responded to a fire explosion, which occured at Oke – Afa, Ejigbo, Lagos.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Preliminary information about the fire explosion has it that a petrol laden tanker caught fire, while trying to discharge Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) at Oando filling station located at Oke – Afa, Ejigbo, Lagos.<\/p>\n

However, it was also gathered that the driver of the tanker, which caught fire managed to redirect the vehicle back to the main road, in a bid to forestall a much more colosal damage to lives and properties at the filling station.<\/p>\n

Apparently, the fire was put off by the personnel of the Lagos State Fire Service who also responded swiftly.<\/p>

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

The Divisional Officer, Oshodi – Isolo Division, Chief Superintendent of Corps ( CSC ), Ekenkwo Chinyere Peace, who led her rescue squad to the scene of the fire explosion, expressed readiness to always assist to save lives and properties in the state.<\/p>\n

The personnel who worked assiduously with other sister agencies such as Lagos State Fire Service and LASEMA also ensured that criminals did not use the incidence to perpetrate their evil act in the area.<\/p>\n

However, the Commandant Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Lagos State Command, Commandant Eweka Douglas Okoro, has directed the Oshodi – Isolo Divisional Officer, (CSC) Ekenkwo Chinyere Peace and the Disaster Management team of the Command to station the Command’s personnel at the scene, in a bid to assist in evacuation or any unforseen rescue operations and assist in the decongestion of traffic that might have been caused by the incidence.<\/p>\n

Commandant Eweka, however, reiterated and assured that the government of Lagos State would continue to gurantee better and continuous improvement in disaster management and control in the state.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
