It seems you have run out of your medication!

Thank God the fire didn't get out of hand

Fire the one element I'll never forgive, messed up my whole plans. I hope no one in the center has regrets

Your maker will be disappointed in you. With all the knowledge He/She bestowed on you, this is the best you could come up with

harmattan never start, fire everywhere...

meanwhile, who know how America take escape tropical storms, & hurricanes this year

When the year is coming to an end, it seems there are more cases of fire accidents.... Beware if fire, always make sure that you have water ( not just in taps or tanks but in buckets, incase something becomes wrong with the tap) and sand( for electrical fire accident) in the house as a way to put it out quickly before it spreads.

dear lord what’s happening
This civic center I was admiring from Ikoyi yesterday night

I hope that you realise how much work and planning using the God-given brains and time of the responsible people went into putting out the fire quickly

How about getting appropriate fire extinguishers as a priority expense instead of these water and sand formula

This is what happens when you do not size your wires properly. Current create heat, heat can cause fire
