A woman identified as Iya Samson was spotted half naked after losing four of her children in a kerosene explosion at her residence. The fire outbreak which took place last Friday night at Rumukwucha community, Rivers State, resulted from the adulterated kerosene she poured into her cooking stove. The woman was seen yesterday around GRA junction half-naked and appealing to passers-by to help rescue her children.
An eyewitness, Uche who lives in the neighbourhood said the lady was cooking when the stove suddenly went up in flames, consuming her four children and other valuables in her apartment.
“We heard people saw her around GRA area of Port Harcourt begging that they should help recover her children from fire. “Those who saw her did not know we were looking for her. They mistook her for a mad person.“ Uche said.
