The fire was alleged to have occurred inside a two-room boys’ quarter located behind the Staff Quarters of the all-girls school.
The two-room apartment was being used for lodging as well as a store
Meanwhile, the Director, Lagos Fire and Rescue Service, Margaret Adeseye, who confirmed the incident, said there was no casualty recorded.
Adeseye said: “The cause of the fire is yet to be ascertained. Meanwhile, the fire has since been put out by a combined effort of the Lagos State Fire Service and Federal Fire Service, while the police who were also alerted, prevented hoodlums from forcefully gaining access to the school premises. No life was lost in the incident.”
