Central Bank Of Nigeria

A fire outbreak has been reported at the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) in Makurdi, where a portion of the bank went in flames on Thursday 

The billows of smoke emanating from the building attracted attention but journalists who rushed to the scene were denied access.

Eyewitnesses said that they noticed the fire at the back of the bank which is located in the Old GRA area, Makurdi, Benue State capital.

“It was in the morning that we noticed the fire at the premises of the bank,” Stanley said.

It was further gathered that the fire started from the fuel dome of the bank but immediately became fierce and drew the attention of some workers who immediately raised the alarm.

The Director of Benue State Fire Service, Donald Ikyaaza, confirmed the report and said that he received a distress call about the fire incident and promptly deployed his men to the scene
