There was panic at the international wing of the Murtala Mohammed Airport (MMA), Lagos yesterday following a minor fire outbreak which cut off electricity supply at the airport.
The fire incident happened at Finger Main Distribution Board at the E-Finger of the Airport, it was learnt. It was reportedly triggered by electric spark.
A worker at the airport said the minor fire incident caused passengers and other airport users to scamper for safety as some people thought it was a major fire incident.
The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) through a statement by its Acting General Manager, Corporate Affairs, Mrs. Henrietta Yakubu, confirmed the incident, saying power was immediately restored.
