A cargo ship caught fire Friday evening at Apapa Port. The vessel CHANG MIN was unloading goods when flames started around 6 o'clock. Workers spotted the fire coming from the second cargo area. The ship carried dangerous items like gas trucks, wood products, and rubber tires. Emergency teams rushed to the port right away.
Fire crews worked with the ship's sailors to fight the blaze. They closed off the burning section to cut oxygen supply. This smart move helped slow down the flames. Firefighters went back inside once it was safe to finish the job. The fire went out completely after their hard work.
All crew members stayed safe during the scary event. Nobody got hurt or needed medical help. Emergency workers counted every person on the ship. The fire damage stayed contained to one cargo area. Recovery teams finished cleaning up the mess.
Officials still don't know what started the fire. Investigators will study the scene to find answers. The blaze began during normal unloading activities. Several emergency groups helped put out the flames. Lagos fire services, port authority teams, and the terminal company all pitched in.
