  6. What a painful way for the children to die! Why should they have been sleeping in a shop if not for poverty. It is time Nigerians started cutting back on family size. If you don't have the means to comfortably cater for your family don't start one. And if you start one, do not go for more than one or two children

  9. The sisters live in the shop while the guardian lives in a house, a comfortable house at that. The man should be arrested.

  11. That was my former house. Just moved out on march. The fire was caused by fuel thief who was running away from the police from nnpc okeafa. He accidentally collided with a parked vehicle as he was driving a bus and baam the fire was sparkled. Unfortunately, christaina 12, pelumi 7 and ferumi 5 was sleeping in their shop while their mother went to see their father. Yes, she is their mother not their guardian. I dont know if i should be thanking God for my life or crying for those lovely kids. Very agile angels, if you had met them when they were alive, you would ve loved.

Their mom separated from their dad and rook the 3kifs along with her, she locked them in the shop when they slept and she went out that night though is not the first time she's locking them inside the shop. What happens was that police men were running after a man who refused to stop when he was ask to along the line his car hit a danfo bus that was parked beside a shop were they sell black market fuel and that was how the fire started
