The Plateau State Specialist hospital’s Public Relations Officer, Talatu Angi, who confirmed the development said:
“We came this morning (yesterday) and saw the place has been burnt but luckily it was just the lab as the fire did not spread to other sections. No life was lost, the fire was huge and was beyond what fire extinguishers could handle.”
