Director General, Lagos State Emergency Management Agency, LASEMA, Dr. Femi Oke-Osanyintolu told PM News that on arrival at the scene of incident, it was discovered that a storey building was gutted by fire as a result of power surge from one of the rooms before escalating to other parts of the building.
