A wing of the Supreme Court building complex situated at the Three-Arm-Zone, Abuja, was gutted by fire earlier this Morning (Monday September 25,2023).

The fire, was first reported at about 7:00 am, causing panic among staff members of the court who scampered to safety.

Though no human casualty was recorded, however, it was not clear at the time of this report whether sensitive documents and files were destroyed by the early morning fire.

Witnesses suspect that the fire was caused by electrical malfunction in one of the offices within the administrative wing of the court.

Three offices, including that of Justice Mohammed Saulawa, were said to have been affected by the inferno before it was eventually put off.

Meanwhile, the court is yet to issue a formal statement on the incident.
