The management of Geometric Power, also known as Aba Power, has said there was a fire outbreak at its company’s premises in Aba, Abia State.
The company says the fire broke out early this Monday in a temporary building, although they say the cause of the fire is still unknown.
They say the building was used by a non-operational South African electricity firm during the construction of facilities in the company but has been of little use for over 12 years.
The management however assured that the fire was contained by the staff of Geometric Power before the arrival of the Abia State Fire Service which responded promptly to the emergency call.
Geometric Power management commended its staff members for their vigilance and gallant efforts in containing the fire and also commended the Abia State Fire Service for its swift response and professionalism.
