The cause of the fire accident according to an eyewitness was cable faults, which apparently melted under excessive electrical heat.
According to the the eyewitness, this led to a blackout in the airport terminal while fire fighters rushed in to put off the fire.
As at the time of filing this report, the firefighters were able to put the situation under control while security operatives erected a metal barricade around the site to control human movement.
No casualties have been reported so far...
Readers' Note: as we are gradually entering the harmattan period, please be watchful of fire outbreaks, check all electrical switches and ensure they are off before living the house. Do not allow kids or untrained house helps to operate the cooking gas, or always check the knob before lightening a match or lighter. Stay safe, safety first!
