Following an explosion, the New Standard Hotel club in the Mpape of Abuja was completely destroyed by fire, destroying goods valued at millions of naira.
A witness, explained that the fire erupted during the early hours of the morning following a loud explosion from the club area.
A man identified as Papa Abdul, who lives near the hotel, said, he suspected that a faulty freezer compressor could have triggered the explosion. He also said the sound did not come from the room where the freezer was kept, but from the club itself.
