NPA records another fire incident at its Marina’s head office

The Nigerian Ports Authority has recorded another fire incident at its head office in Lagos

the fire outbreak which occurred at the early hours of Wednesday 22nd September 2021 was suspected to have been triggered by an electrical surge that affected 3 offices on the 6th floor of the Broad Street wing of the Nigerian Ports Authority

Operatives of the NPA Fire Service Department immediately mobilized to the scene and promptly contained the fire.

Working in line with safety protocols, the management has since cordoned off affected floors as investigations are ongoing to ascertain the actual cause of the fire.

The fire affected one office where 2 desktops, tables, chairs and other furniture were lost. Two other adjoining offices were affected by smoke and soot.

The Management of the Authority appreciates the prompt response and professionalism of the Authority’s Fire service and security departments and wishes to assure all stakeholders and the general public that no sensitive documents were lost and normalcy has been restored and that our operations have not been disrupted in any way.
