Reacting to the incident, the Chief Press Secretary to the local government council, Rasheed Iskilu said that accident on Bayo Oyewole Street, Okota this morning was one that had left the council worried.
He said, “We wish to assure the public that investigations have commenced to determine the immediate and remote causes of the regrettable occurrence.
Our appeal goes to the general public to exercise restraint and allow the law to take its course after diligent investigations must have been concluded. Arson and lawlessness in whatever form will only compound the situation.
