Information gathered by LASEMA revealed that the fire ignited as a result of overheating of the generator in operation. Oke-Osanyitolu noted that preliminary investigations conducted by the Agency’s Response Teams revealed the immediate cause of the incident to be overheating from the generator engine.


There was no loss of life due to the incident and no injuries were sustained according to the LASEMA Permanent Secretary. However, about 80% of the generator house was razed by fire. Quick intervention of the Agency’s Response Teams curtailed the inferno from spreading to adjoining buildings within the facility.
