For the fifth time since Prof. Attahiru Jega’s assumption of office as the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC),another fire incident has again gutted some offices of the commission.

The last fire incident that engulfed the Voters Registration office was on January 7, 2013. In the latest fire incident at the commission, the former Department of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) of the commission was one affected.

But Kayode Idowu, Chief Press Secretary to the INEC chairman described the fire incident at the commission as a minor fire that was quickly controlled by the Fire Service attached to the Commission.
