According to a statement by Dr. Olufemi Damilola Oke-Osanyintolu of the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA), the organisation responded to the incident after it was reported to LASEMA through its toll-free 112 emergency number on Tuesday morning.
“Upon arriving at the scene of the incident, it was found that a room in a warehouse where shoes are stored had been completely destroyed by fire.
“A power surge that occurred when the electricity was restored caused the fire to start.
