Properties worth millions of naira were yesterday [Nov. 21] morning destroyed in a fire incident which gutted the male hostel of the College of Medicine, Lagos State University, Idi-Araba, Lagos.



The fire, which started about 10am, was said to have been put out by a combined team of the Lagos State Fire Service and policemen from Itire Police Division.

Though no casualty was recorded, the incident caused commotion in the entire hostel as people ran in different directions.

A witness said the students were in their rooms when they suddenly saw thick smokes coming from the burning block. He said at the same time, they were alerted by porters in the hostel that the building had been gutted by fire, leading to a stampede.

The authorities of the LUTH said power surge caused the fire outbreak at the college’s hostel.

Mr. Olusesan Odejimi, Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the college said “only two rooms were affected and not the entire building and nobody was injured or was there any form of casualty.”

The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Ngozi Braide, confirmed the incident.

She said: “There is no casualty at all because our men from Itire Police Division quickly responded to the distress call and ensured that everyone in the hostel was evacuated and immediately helped in putting out the fire”.
