Property worth millions of naira were, Tuesday, destroyed when fire
consumed the main auditorium of Christ Embassy Church, located on
Billings Way, Ikeja, Lagos.
It was gathered that the fire started at 6.30pm from an apartment which housed about 14 power generating sets. It was further learnt that the fire started as a result of power surge from one of the generating sets.
Sources said that immediately the church members noticed the fire, they tried putting it off with their in-house extinguishers. However, the fire escalated and spread to the church main auditorium. The church management declined speaking on the incident.

They used extinguishers and the fire "escalated". Most likely used the wrong TYPE. It was an ELECTRICAL FIRE.
