CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA
Press Release
There is No Fire Incident at CBN Head Office
Reports that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) head office building
is on fire are false.
Passersby who saw a pall of exhaust from the generator house far
away from the building apparently mistook the exhaust for fire
smoke.
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.
