The warehouse of the Cross River State Emergency Management Agency has been gutted by fire as some alleged hoodlums tried to cart away food and non food materials meant for Internally Displaced Persons in the state.

He explained that after a thorough investigation, it was revealed that the hoodlum broke into the warehouse through one of the air conditioners to gain access to the materials. “They set the wood holding the air conditioner on fire to allow them in, but eventually, the fire overwhelmed them and escalated to the whole warehouse.

“We wish to appeal to the government and corporate organisations to assist in building a standard and well secured warehouse for storage of relief materials for the IDPs,’’ he said.
