IBADAN— There was fire outbreak at the Alarere residence of a high chief in Olubadan Council of Oyo State, Senator Lekan Balogun. The incident happened Tuesday evening.

Although, no life was lost during the incident that lasted for about an hour, several household equipment were destroyed.

It took the combined efforts of neighbours of the notable Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, member and the fire service to put out the fire.

Speaking with newsmen in Ibadan yesterday, Senator Balogun said: “I wasn’t there. I got a call from my guard who said the fire was much.

“Ì got in touch with the Police Station in the area and they called the fire service. I cannot really estimate the property I lost, but thank God it did not happen in the night.”
