FIRE OUTBREAK OCCURS AT IFEJIKA, DAMAGES A TWO STOREY BUILDING

INTRODUCTION

Fire outbreak is seeming uncontrollable as day after day, properties and human life are lost resulting from fire. It pains me to see people losing their lives or properties. There are anwers to what could cause fire but little or no attention is given to the root causes of fire. Taking a stock and amount of what could be lost during a fire outbreak, should make one adopt measures to
prevent from happening.

Fire could breakout at anytime even though we might have taken preventive measures. This could be the case when it happens as a result of other people's carelessness that affects us. It could be highly uncontrollable when it happens in our abscence.

What Could Have Caused This Ugly incidence?

As at the time of making this post, the cause of the fire is yet to be identified. The fire started at about 6:45 am and it was seen spreading to the next building closed to it. On getting close to the build, neighbors and other residents including themen of the fire fighters, were seen making serious efforts to get some properties out of the building before the fire burns them. No life is been reported to have been lost yet. But more checks are still on-going to ascertain if there are lives lost as a result of the incidence.

As often said, there is no smoke wothout fire. Fire outbreak does not just occur, it happens as a result of some negligence, ignorance, mistakes or careslessness. Nobody knows when it could happen and this makes important for one to be extremely careful with materials or items that could ignite fire. Some of the causes of fire outbreak are well known and includes the following:

  • Improper handling or storage of gasses or other flammable liquids

  • Faulty electrical appliances and wiring

  • Forgetfulness or negligence

  • Overheated equipments

When it comes to the issue of fire outbreak, safety measures should not be ignored or neglected. The negligence, ignorance or forgetfulness of safety taking safet measures would often result fire incidences. It is better to do all we could do to the best of our ability, in preventing fire outbreak than losing our properties or lives to it.

I now move to invite the following persons:

It is quite unfortunate to have such a property lost to such an incident. As humans, we should always prioritize safety to reduce such incidences.

Thanks for sharing....
