Sources said the incident was a result of a surge in the voltage of the electricity supply in the area, which happened intermittently between 9 am and 1:30 pm before the incident started.

One of the tenants of the burnt property, Mr Onuigbo, said the heavy nature of the fire, hindered him from salvaging any of his belongings from the building.

The Controller of the Ebonyi State Fire Service, Ibiam Raphael, confirmed the incident, saying work was still ongoing to eventually put the fires off.
