Firefighters from the Kwara State fire brigade, on Saturday, prevented a major disaster at Aasco Petrol station, along Ajase-Ipo highway in Ilorin, Ilorin West Local Government of the state capital.

The incident occurred at about 17:57 hours, according to the spokesman of the fire service, Hassan Adekunle in Ilorin on Saturday.

โ€œUpon arrival at the scene, the fire crew encountered a severe and rapidly spreading fire at the Aasco filling station along Ajase-Ipo Road, Ilorin.

โ€œThe firemen immediately commenced firefighting operations to contain the inferno and prevented it from spreading to other parts of the filling station.

โ€œDespite the scale of the disaster, the firemen who demonstrated their expertise and skill, successfully controlled and extinguished the fire with their knowledge and prowess in firefighting techniques,โ€ he added.

He disclosed that investigation into the cause of the inferno revealed that a spark emitted from a Dyna truck with registration number LEM115XB ignited the flammable liquid, leading to the fire outbreak.

โ€œHowever, thanks to the swift and coordinated response of the firemen and the support of relevant authorities; the fire was brought under control, limiting further potential damage to the facility and surrounding areas,โ€ he further stated.
