Several Injured While Scooping Fuel In Niger State

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.
