The Cable reports that the cause of the fire has not been ascertained.
According to the report, the fire affected the section that houses the Rivers State Pension Board.

The incident has been confirmed by Honour Sirawoo, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Information.
He did not state if there were any casualties.
Sirawoo added that firefighters from both the state and Federal Fire Services (FFS) are currently at the scene, working to put out the flames.
