A fire outbreak, on Monday morning, occurred at the Supreme Court of Nigeria in Abuja, destroying some parts of the court.
According to reports, the mysterious fire forced some occupants of the building to scamper for safety.
Festus Akande, Public Relations Officer for the Court, confirmed to newsmen that the cause of the fire was electrical from one of the Chambers of the Justices and was put out with the use of fire extinguishers.
Akande debunked the stories making the rounds on social media that there are casualties, saying that there was no record of casualty.
Meanwhile, source who craved anonymity, said the fire started around 6 am.
It was learnt that the cleaners on duty and some of the workers who resumed early for work detected the fire and raised the alarm.
The workers were said to have used the fire extinguishers in the building to combat the fire.
Three offices, including that of Justice Mohammed Saulawa, were touched by the fire.
