Several properties have been consumed by the ongoing raging fire at one of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC pieplines at Ekoro Road, Abule Egba, Lagos State.
Preliminary investigation has revealed that the inferno was as a result of pipeline vandals who burst one of the oil pipelines in the area to steal the product.
Public Relations Officer of the Lagos State Fire Service, Mr Amodu, who confirmed the incident, said there was no casualty at press time.
