A fire incident occurred at the Information Communication Technology (ICT) Centre in the office of the wife of Oyo State Governor, Mrs Florence Ajimobi on Saturday.
The fire, which broke out at about 11: 20am in the centre, was apparently caused by a power upsurge from the server in the building, when the Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company restored power.
The Florence Ajimobi ICT Centre was commissioned by Governor Abiola Ajimobi on Thursday, December 22, 2011.
Property worth millions of naira was destroyed, although the fire service men arrived in time to stem the destruction..
A Senior Fire Superintendent, Mr Omotayo Paul, who led his men to the scene, said: “We got the distress call around 11:30am and we got here after five minutes. There is no smoke detector and it is only when we are called that we can be able to come to the fire scene.
He said they were able to report promptly because the governor has positioned fire trucks at strategic places to curb any fire outbreak in the state. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
