Lagos firefighters in action
Firefighters from the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service on Saturday battled a fire outbreak at No. 9, Ola Market, Adedeji, Itire, Surulere, Lagos.
The Controller-General of the agency, Margaret Abimbola Adeseye, disclosed this in a statement on November 14, 2026.
Adeseye said the agency received a distress call at 10:12am, prompting the mobilisation of firefighters from the Sari Iganmu and Isolo fire stations to the scene.
She said the fire affected the top floor of a one-storey residential building but was successfully confined to the floor where it originated.
The agency said further details would be communicated as the firefighting operation continued. (Weekend Trust)
