Three women and a man on Monday, June 26, sustained second-degree burns after a gas explo§ion in the Agege area of Lagos State.
It was gathered that the explo§ion emanated from a gas shop following leakage from one of the cylinders.
LASEMA’s Permanent Secretary, Dr. Femi Oke-Osanyintolu, in a statement, said: “No loss of life. However, four adults (three females) and an adult male sustained various degrees of injuries (second-degree burns) as a result of the incident and have been attended to by the agency’s pre-hospital care, alongside LASAMBUS.
The victims have also been moved to Lagos University Teaching Hospital, LASUTH.
The inferno has been completely put out by the combined effort of LASEMA LRT, Lagos State Fire, and Rescue Service.
A post-incident assessment was conducted by the agency’s LRT alongside LASG Fire. The shop has been cordoned off to avert a secondary incident. The operation had been concluded.”
