Arrangement of other minor blasts pursued as the blazes flew high into the sky joined by thick dim smoke.
The Presidential Collation Center arranged inside the INEC Headquarters had quite recently gone on a break to accumulate the last decision results as got from the 17 LGAs in the State when the fiasco happened.
No life is thought to have been lost as the filling station was said to be shut when it occurred.
A private vehicle left inside the filling station was securely cleared with the assistance of a few young people while the flame was all the while seething.
A fuel tanker was anyway flaring alongside different offices in the filling station as of the season of this report.
The fiasco is accepted to have happened when the now demolished tanker was offloading fuel.
No official remark has anyway been acquired on the real reason for the episode.
