Three Sisters Die In Fire Outbreak In Lagos



Three sisters were reportedly burnt to death as midnight fire ravaged some shops on Friday morning in the Mechanic Village area of Oke Afa, Isolo, Lagos.
The three sisters were aged 5, 7, and 12 years and were of the same parents. Their names were not ascertained as at the time of the incident.
According to Daily Post, it was difficult for the girls to escape the inferno as their guardians had reportedly locked them in a shop before the incident.

Director of the Fire service, Dr. Razak Fadipe, who confirmed the incident, said efforts were on to put out the fire as two fire trucks from Isolo and Ikotun branches of the Lagos State Fire Service were seen at the scene extinguishing the fire.
Policemen from the Ejigbo Police Division were said to have removed the corpses.

See Wooden Bridge Constructed By Young Men In Adamawa State Without Government Support

This wooden bridge was constructed by young men in Adamawa without government support. The old bridge was destroyed by Boko Haram. It was a very important bridge that connects Adamawa North and Adamawa Central. Even the governor and other important people in the state use this wooden bridge when they visit their villages. Instead of rebuilding the bridge, the Adamawa state government recently announced that it will spend 200 million Naira on prayer warriors. I believe that is a misuse of public money. Nigerians are praying daily. You don't need to spend millions on prayers. The North East states have a lot of work to do in rebuilding the communities and infrastructures destroyed by Boko Haram. I don't think the governors in the region understand the magnitude of the problem. It is time for them to wake up and get their priorities right. If you know the Adamawa State governor, tell him that rebuilding this bridge is an important and urgent project.
