Properties worth millions of have been destroyed following a fire outbreak that razed a filling station at Awule axis along Ilesha garage in Akure.
Though no life was lost, Eye witnesses explained that the fire outbreak occured as a result of heat coming from the pit when the tanker was offloading petrol.
OSRC’s Gbenga Oluwajana reports that residents of the area appealed to government to check incessant siting of petrol and Gas stations at residential areas to avoid recurrence.
