The Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service has averted a gas leakage on Western Avenue, inward Barracks bus stop, Surulere, Lagos.
The leakage was caused by a tanker that developed a fault while in motion within the top inlet of its compartment.
The fire service was alerted to the incident at 9:04 a.m. on Saturday and quickly responded with a chemical foam compound to forestall ignition and any eventuality of a secondary emergency.
Traffic was diverted from the Barracks end and Stadium section of Western Avenue as other emergency responders teamed up with the fire service to avert disaster.
There were no reported casualties.
The fire service said it will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as needed.
