A property located along Admiralty Way, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos where popular singer, Banky W, lives has been destroyed by fire.

A neighbour to the artiste said that the fire which was believed to have started around 6am was caused by a faulty air conditioner.

A resident said, “The fire started around 6am and all of us came out to assist Banky in putting out the fire. However, Fire service officials arrived around 7.30am.

“So many items were destroyed including Banky’s awards. But officials of the fire service arrived over an hour late.”
