Worried by the viral video showing kegs of petrol being handed out as souvenirs at an event centre in Lagos, the state government Saturday vowed to investigate the incident.
Social media has been awash with the video, which has gone viral, with the state describing the action as dangerous to lives and property.

The state government, in a statement issued by the state Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr Gbenga Omotoso, said the act using inflammable substance as souvenir is dangerous.
Omotoso said: “The attention of the Lagos State Government has been drawn to a video showing kegs of petrol being handed out as souvenirs at an event centre in Lagos.
