Some hoodlums reportedly left three firemen of the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service injured and a fire engine of the agency damaged after an attack on the officials in the course of duty on Sunday, November 29.

Acting Head of the Agency, Mrs. Margaret Adeseye, who confirmed the incident, expressed displeasure over the incessant attacks on firefighters in recent times for yet to be identified reasons.

She recalled that the attack on the firefighters and the engine occurred after officials the agency were prevented from attending to a fire incident at Nmani Street, Dopemu Agege, in Orile Agege LCDA, Lagos.

Adeseye informed that three firemen from a crew of four were injured and the Agency’s vehicle, Agege Fire Eagle C07, damaged by the hoodlums after preventing the personnel from performing their official duties.
