The fire incident reportedly started at the primary gateway section of the airport on Wednesday, causing a lot of pandemonium and chaos around and within the airport vicinity.
According to Nigerian Tribune that broke the news, the fire was as a result of malfunctioning cable on the Tarmac, which damaged a portion of the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria, FAAN, administrative office, the night before.
Consequently, all passengers and occupants as well as staff of the authority were asked to leave the building immediately.
