The container, it was gathered, contained card readers. Staff of the Commission fled their offices. As of the time of filing the story, firefighters were still battling to put off the fire.

Security operatives, including army and police thronged the Secretariat to assist. However, no INEC official was ready to talk to the press. – Punch
