Central Bank of Nigeria

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has stated that there was no fire incident at its head office as reported by some section of the media.

A statement signed by the Ag. Director, Corporate Communications, Isaac Okorafor, revealed that passersby sounded a false alarm owing to a pall of exhaust from the generator house, which was far away from the main building.

“The CBN maintains a total security system that triggers safety alarms in the presence of smoke and so all fire engines and personnel received the alert only to discover that it was an unusual pall of exhaust.

“The affected generator has been rested and normal work has been uninterrupted, while the engineers are working to rectify the issues with the generator.
“We hereby assure the general public that there has been no fire at our building,” the statement read.
