In what will come across as a really startling development, there was a fire outbreak in the auditorium of the University of Benin recently. Thankfully, no life was lost.

Staff and students in the building succeeded in escaping unharmed as the fire raged on Wednesday,  August 4.

As the fire service arrived to put out the fire, visibly shaken staff are seen sitting on the grass outside the building in a video shared online.

“Uniben work no go kill me o,” a voice is heard saying.

Two female staff can also be seen thanking God for saving their lives.
