Atlantic Shrimpers , a fishing company located inside Nigerian Ports Authority Phase 1 Apapa Lagos went aflame this afternoon at 12.15 pm 25th January 2020.
All efforts made to put off the fire by the workers could not yield any result as the fire had gone beyond what ordinary hands could quench. The efforts of the nearby company yielded but little efforts but because of the volume and violence of the fire it was not easy.
Unfortunately, the Nigerian Ports Authority that harbours the company around that has station in the premises with fire engine and workers in uniform who are being paid to fight fire in the Port premises were no where to be found. their fire fighting engine which had not been operated for the past one year is parked with dust covering the whole vehicle.
As at the time of filling this reports, the fire is still going more higher. Our government should wake up please.
