TVC E. The premises of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), Oshodi, was on Saturday (18th of March 2017) razed by fire.
The fire, according to the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA), started from the power house of the agency around 3.15 p.m.
Adesina Tiamiyu, the general manager of LASEMA, said, “The inferno started from the power house, escalating to the nearby warehouse where chemicals were stored.”
