December 28, (THEWILL) – Some parts of the headquarters of the Enugu State Broadcasting Service, Independence Layout, Enugu, were on Tuesday morning gutted by fire.
The incident reportedly began around 5am and lasted for an hour.
THEWILL gathered that the fire damaged the newsroom, presenters’ office, HD cameras and a laptop.
The station’s general manager, Chukwuma Ogbonna, commended Enugu State Fire Service for its prompt response to the distress call.
He said, “The fire service came on time and saved the station, otherwise I don’t know what could have happened. The firefighters have put out the fire. It didn’t destroy many things, at least we can go on air.”
The cause of the fire is yet to be ascertained.
