Fire outbreaks have in recent years been a recurring problem in Lagos, wreaking much havoc which included the destruction of lives and property.

A fire incident that ravaged parts of the Dumping ground section of the popular LAWMA office(Bowler) at Oko-filling Bus-stop, Igando -Ikotun in Alimosho, Lagos state, on Sunday January 11, 2014.

Men of the State Fire Service, however, successfully contained the inferno, which began at about 11:0am.

Fire fighters couldn't achieve much due to inadequate water in their water tank but thanks to one of the landlord on the Mike-Anison Street who gave out water for free to the fire fighters.

I was happy when I saw the fire fighters came around at the place
at 11:30am, fire service, as
well as some traders, battled for hours to put out the fire in order to save the popular boarding school beside the place.
