A chemical depot located at Nkpor junction in Idemili North Local
Government area of Anambra State, yesterday evening set three buildings:
a five-storey, three-storey and another ablaze when the chemicals
stored in drums in the depot caught fire and exploded.
Properties estimated at several millions of naira were lost to the
inferno despite the efforts of men of the fire service who were on hand
to stop the fire.
Two of the affected buildings were Summer Hill Clinic and a
residential home located near it. It was gathered that because the three
buildings were clustered in one place, the inferno was able to affect
them easily.
Contacted, the Ogidi Divisional Police Officer, DPO, Mr. Hassan Musa
confirmed the inferno started from the chemical depot, however he said
no life was lost and no body had been confirmed injured
