Several persons were
injured by fire on Sunday while attempting to scoop fuel from a vandalised
pipeline at Dagbo-Pogo community in Niger State.
Firefighters were, however,
seen battling to put out the blaze that erupted from the vandalised pipeline
belonging to the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).
Although no one died in the
incident, farmlands and houses belonging to more than 20 villages around the
substation were razed.
Also, officers of the
Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), the police as well as that
of the Niger State Emergency Management Agency (NISEMA) were at the scene of
the incident.
