A Moody Scene in Lagos Island as Business Complex Catches Fire

The scene in Lagos Island is quite moody today. Early this morning, the Great Nigeria Insurance House which is reported to have property worth billions of Naira, caught fire.

According to Punch, more than 12 trucks containing water had arrived at the scene to stop the fire, but all to no avail. One person is feared dead and two have sustained varying degrees of injuries.

Our hearts go out to anyone affected by the situation.
