There was a stampede at the Lagos campus of the Nigerian Law school located on Ozumba Mbadiwe Street Victoria Island, Lagos when fire broke out Wednesday night.
An eye witness who narrated the story said the fire at the campus was suspected to have been caused by an electrical fault. The fire started at 10 pm from the first floor of the 5-storey hostel housing about 1500 law graduates on the Lagos campus.

“The fire came with a big bang. There was stampede in the hostel. A student jumped from the first floor where the fire started near the reading room. Other students ran out from their rooms stark naked.
“People had asthma attacks and five people were injured bodily. One elderly woman who is a cleaner had her toe dislocated,” said our source.
The fire at the Law School was however contained when hostel security officials put off the main electrical server switch before the arrival of Fire Service some minutes later.
The injured students are currently receiving medical attention at the school’s clinic.
GWG Green White Green also gathered that, apart from one big electric cable, no tangible property was destroyed as nothing was close to the place where the fire started from.
