Fire ravages feed mill factory in Ibadan

A fire broke out on Monday in a prefabricated store building at a feed mill factory in the Podo area of Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State. Property worth millions of naira was destroyed, but no lives were lost. Maroof Akinwande, chairman of the Oyo State Fire Service, said firefighters brought the blaze under control and stopped it from spreading to other buildings and facilities. A preliminary investigation suggested the fire may have resulted from a spontaneous reaction among materials used at the factory.
