Fire Contained<br/><br />The fire incident at Ascon Oil filling station at Lekki Phase 1 this afternoon has been contained. Contrary to earlier speculations, the main building and the reservoirs are unaffected. The incident emanated from a discharge at the point of offloading product from a tanker, engulfing two tankers and some vehicles parked by the road side.</blockquote><br /></div><br /><blockquote class='tr_bq'><br /><p><a id="more" name="more"> </a> </p><br /></blockquote><br /><div dir='ltr'>It was an accident compounded by the current fuel scarcity in the country with ASCON OIL being one of the few stations with a reliable steady supply even in times of scarcity. No life was lost to the incident, the pumps are intact and emergency fire service officers were already on site containing the flames as at the time of this report.</div><br /><div dir='ltr'> </div><br /><div dir='ltr'>ASCON OIL wishes to reaffirm its commitment to serving its customers even in the face of accidents of this nature for which a company of its pedigree is always prepared.
