JUST IN: Panic As Fire Erupts At MMIA Lagos Airport
A fire outbreak on Thursday prompted the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria, FAAN, to redirect all flight operations away from the E wing of the Murtala Muhammad International Airport, MMIA.
The incident occurred in the early hours of Thursday when smoke was spotted at E54 bridge.
“The quick intervention of the airport firefighters saved the day,” confirmed the FAAN Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Mrs. Obiageli Orah.
“At 05:29 hrs, smoke was detected billowing from the E54 Bridge, leading electrical engineers to immediately cut off power to the entire E Wing,” Orah stated.
“The Airport Rescue and Firefighting Services (ARFFS) team was quick to respond, arriving at the scene by 05:30 hrs,” she added.
“Initial suspicions point to sparks from an electrical unit as the cause, but a thorough investigation is ongoing to ascertain the cause of the fire. The incident, which had escalated into a fire, was brought under control by 06:41 hrs,” she explained.
