No fewer than five persons have been hospitalized following a fire outbreak that occurred at the Lagos campus of the Nigerian Law School located on Ozumba Mbadiwe Street, Victoria Island.
It was gathered that the incident happened on Wednesday night, Feb. 15, and led to tumult among occupants who scampered in different directions, with some of them getting injured in the process.
The fire was reportedly caused by an electrical fault and started at about 10 pm from the first floor of the 5-story building hostel, accommodating about 1500 law graduates on the Lagos campus.
The fire was put out by hostel security officials as they promptly switched off the main power supply before the arrival of the state fire service some minutes later.
