Arsonists on Sinday set the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) office at Awgu Local Government Area of Enugu State ablaze.
The Chief Fire Officer in Enugu State, Okwudili Ohaa, confirmed the incident to the News Agency of Nigeria in Enugu.
Ohaa said that a distress call was received by the Enugu State Fire Service at about 1.30 a.m.
“As usual, when we received the distress call our trucks and men at Ozalla Station quickly moved to the scene. We equally mobilised fire engines and firefighters from the Enugu metropolis.
“Our prompt intervention saved the entire complex as only one office room was affected in the raging fire before it was extinguished,’’ he said.
