The Federal Fire Service has confirmed that the fire involving a petrol tanker at a filling Station in Area 3, Garki, Abuja, has been successfully extinguished.
In a statement, the National Public Relations Officer of the Federal Fire Service, Paul Abraham, says the Controller-General, Olumode Adeyemi, personally coordinated the emergency response until the fire was brought under control.
It adds that the fire broke out while a tanker was discharging Premium Motor Spirit and spread to part of a nearby three-storey building before firefighters contained the blaze.
The Federal Fire Service says four people that sustained minor injuries had since been treated and discharged from hospital.
The Service notes that an investigation has commenced to determine the cause of the fire and commended members of the public and sister emergency agencies for their cooperation during the operation.
