Several people have reportedly been trapped as the West African Examination Council (WAEC) Yaba, National Office, Lagos engulfed by fire.
The cause of the fire incident which happened early hours of Wednesday, October 26, 2022, is yet to be ascertained.
Sources said the inferno was caused by a power surge in one of the offices, which immediately went wild.
The fire had broken out at the middle of the high-rise building as those trapped in the building were seen frantically calling for help.
An eyewitness said a staff of the Council believed to have been trapped in between some floors was observed attempting to jump through the window of the 12-floor magnificent building to escape being suffocated.
A report monitored on a Lagos radio station Bond FM, noted that firefighters from the University of Lagos (UNILAG) and Yaba College of Technology (YABATECH) have arrived the scene of the incident to extinguish the fire as of the time of filing this report.
None of the Council officials could be reached for further details.
