There was confusion on Thursday as a section of
the Zenith bank head of office on Ajose Adeogun,
Victoria Island, Lagos State, went up in flames.
It was learnt that the fire, which started
around 5pm, razed some gadgets and a few
documents.
The fire was said to have been caused by an
electric surge inside the banking hall.
Our correspondent gathered that the fire was
prevented from escalating by firefighters from
the Onikan station of the Lagos State Fire
Service, who responded with 10,000 litres of
water.
The security officials of the bank declined to
comment on the development. They told our
correspondent to check back tomorrow during
the banking hours.
