The Minister of State for Petroleum, Ibe Kachikwu, on Monday, confirmed that there was a fire incident at his Abuja residence, as circulated on social media, but said it was “nothing serious”.
“It was a mere power surge that was contained immediately”, Kachikwu’s Spokesperson, Idang Alibi, revealed.
The Spokesperson said no one was hurt during the incident, which he said occurred between Sunday night and Monday morning, and blamed on a faulty electric cable in his principal’s bedroom.
Kachikwu was not at home during the outbreak. It was contained within a few minutes by Police guard and others who were at the property located in the highbrow Asokoro neighbourhood.
The development comes amidst raging controversy over the October 3 leakage of a memo which Kachikwu addressed to President Buhari, about alleged infractions at the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC.
“No foul play was suspected in the fire incident”, Alibi said.
