The cause of a Sunday morning fire outbreak at the campus of Queens College, QC, Yaba, has not been ascertained, though firefighters said no life was lost.

This came as the Director/Principal of the college, Mrs. Oyindamola Obabori, has not responded to calls and text messages for her comment on the matter.

The two-room apartment was being used for lodging as well as a store.

Meanwhile, the Director, Lagos Fire and Rescue Service, Margaret Adeseye, who confirmed the incident, said there was no casualty recorded.
