BREAKING… Lagos community in flames as fire bursts from vandalized pipeline

Residents of Ijegun community are currently battling with a raging fire that greeted their community in the early hours of Thursday.

The enormous fire, according to sources within the community, has trapped some of the residents from going to work.

Residents said the fire emanated from a pipeline vandalized by hoodlums.

“Everywhere is on fire. We’re all outside with our properties. We can’t go to work because the fire is huge,” a resident, Adeola Adekoya said.

He called for emergency responders to mobilise their men to Ijegun.
