However, the fire escalated and spread to the church main auditorium. The church management declined speaking on the incident.
An eyewitness, Mr. Oladele Akintayo, said: “Before the arrival of the emergency teams, several property had been destroyed by the raging inferno.”
General Manager of Lagos State Emergency Agency, LASEMA, Dr. Femi Oke Osanyintolu and Director of Fire Service, Mr. Rasaq Fadipe, said that the fire raged for about three hours before it was finally put out by the combined team of the emergency agencies at the scene.
Oke Osanyintolu said: “There is no casualty, but one of the fire service men sustained injury. The church lost a number of power generating sets and other property.”
According to Fadipe, “it was a very serious fire outbreak. The fire involved the generator house. A lot of armoured cables were also affected by the inferno. They have about 14 big generators that were affected and the church’s stationary diesel and petrol tanks.
“However, with the effort of the fire service officials, we didn’t allow the tanks to burst. And we also prevented the fire from spreading to the air conditioner house.”
He blamed the church for the extent of damage, saying “when my men arrived the scene, they were restricted by the church members who wanted to take over the affairs of putting off the fire.
“I had four fire trucks on ground from Ilupeju, Isolo, Ikeja and Alausa with 10,000 tones of water each and 18 factory-fitted generating sets to combat the inferno.
“The fire involved the power house and the warehouse, where compressors were stocked. We faced serious interference from the church members.”

[Photo Of The Day] Mur-der Suspect Looks Like Devil, With Horns And 666 Tattoo

The “666″ tattoo and horn piercing decorating the nose of Caius Veiovis , the m****r suspect, come off as an understatement compared to the bulging round implants protruding from his skull in this unforgettable mugshot.

The UK’s The Sun newspaper called the image, “one of the most frightening mugshots ever” and local newspaper The Berkshire Eagle has even dedicated coverage to the photo’s viral potential.
Unfortunately, though perhaps not surprisingly, the charges against Veiovis are as alarming as his photograph.
According to the Massachusetts newspaper The Republican, Veiovis and David Chalue were arrested over the weekend and charged with the kidnapping and m****r of three men, that had been missing for nearly two weeks, and their bodies were discovered in a trench at an undisclosed location Saturday.
