A midnight fire at the Terminal ‘C’ managed by Port and Cargo Limited, Tin-Can Island, Lagos, razed down property worth millions of naira.

Though the fire was eventually put out, one of the cargo handling equipment was completely destroyed by the inferno.

Witnesses said the only fire truck owned by the management of the Terminal could not contain the fire when it started.

They said it took efforts of other terminals to bring the raging fire under control.

However, no life was lost but few personnel of the terminals sustained injuries while trying to contain the situation.
