 Fire Razes Trucks at Kwara Park


A fire outbreak at Alagbede Tipper Garage in Ilorin South Local Government Area of Kwara State early Tuesday morning destroyed three trucks out of 42 parked at the site.


Reports indicate that the fire began around 1:45 a.m. from a waste collection truck containing refuse, which ignited and spread to two other trucks before firefighters managed to contain it.


Confirming the incident, Hassan Adekunle, spokesperson for the Kwara State Fire Service, stated, “The fire service received a distress call at 1:35 a.m. and promptly responded. Thanks to the firefighters’ swift intervention, the fire was contained, limiting damage to just three trucks.”


Preliminary findings revealed that smoldering charcoal in the refuse truck caused the ignition.


Meanwhile, in a separate incident on Monday, a shop at No. 1 Awolowo Road, Tanke, Ilorin, was gutted by fire. Firefighters contained the blaze, preventing it from spreading to nearby shops.


The Director of the Kwara State Fire Service, Falade John, advised residents to adhere to fire safety precautions, particularly in handling waste and solar power installations, to prevent future incidents.
