@Special thanks to @fireservice_enu @GovUgwuanyi , a fire disaster that would have degenerated to a devastating conflagration was averted in a six-flat, two-storey building in Enugu. The swift response of @fireservice_enu saved the lives and properties of all the occupants of the building. The fire was contained and killed in just one one room of the affected flat.
