Fire broke out early this Friday morning at the
National Control Centre of the Power Holding Company of Nigeria in
Osogbo.
The fire, which affected a transformer there, started around
3am.
The NCC, Osogbo, is one of the transmission centres for the
distribution of generated electricity in the country.
Fire fighters were seen battling the inferno when our
correspondent visited the scene at around 7am.
The fire raged till around 9am when it was contained.
Members of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence
Corps, soldiers and staff of the Federal Road Safety Commission were
controlling vehicular and human traffic at the centre.
The incident, which is expected to worsen the already
epileptic power supply in the country, has already thrown many areas within the
state into darkness.
