PORT HARCOURT—Two persons were burnt in an inferno that razed about 30 makeshift houses at Elechi Beach in Diobu area of Port Harcourt, Rivers State, in the early hours of yesterday.

Vanguard gathered that the fire started at 12.30 a.m., from a candle that was allegedly lit in one of the makeshift apartments in the neighbourhood.

Property worth several millions of naira were consumed in the inferno that raged on for about one hour before fire fighters extinguished it.

Some of the victims, who spoke to Vanguard, said the two persons, a lady and her child were rushed to an undisclosed hospital.

According to sources, the lady was asleep when the fire started.

It was said that it took efforts of neighbours to break into her apartment to rescue the baby who woke up and tried to wake her mummy and at the same time, cried out as the fire was spreading towards to them.

“They suffered some degree of burn before help could come their way. The child also inhaled much smoke. They have been rushed to the hospital,” a source said.

Another source, who resides in the area said that the timely arrival of fire fighters from the state helped to reduce the impact of the inferno in the area.

You are welcome my lady

We had a brief technical hitch with the server today...but was promptly resolved. We appreciate all those who were affected but cooperated with us to have it fixed. Please, we continue to count on your patience and understanding.

However, the Study Centre has been severally inundated with complaints of low scores in the ongoing e-examinations. Actually, the e-exam platform is very specific for the fill-in-the-gap questions. On the other hand, there are other issues like incomplete questions, incomplete options, etc. We have already informed you that issues that fall within the latter category would be resolved in favour of the students as bonus marks.

Your complaints have been noted and in an effort to properly notify the Headquarters, we would like everyone affected to submit a formal complaint to the Study Centre on or before the close of work on Wednesday, 26th November, 2014.

Congrats to those who successfully completed their exams for the semester and good luck to those writing on Saturday and Monday.

I do hope I am able to keep the diary alive and make it interesting as time goes on. I am not a fan of writing but of reading. Maybe it's because I have so many things in my head I want to put down so I end up muddling everything up.

London – Dr Olusegun Aganga, the Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, on Sunday said Nigeria still ranked fourth in the global ratings on nations with high returns on investment.

“When you talk of returns on investment, Nigeria ranks fourth with an average return on investment of about 36 per cent, which compares to about 6.6 per cent globally,’’ Aganga told newsmen at the end of the 17th session of the Honorary International Investment Council (HIIC), held in London.

He said reforms and policies in all sectors of the Nigerian economy continued to attract good investment flow, with infrastructure and power having the most opportunities for investments.

“Currently we have a pipeline commitment of at least 59 billion dollars in different sectors of the economy and that excludes the commitment in the power sector.

“In power alone, we have commitment of over 60 billion dollars over the next five to eight years.

“So, if you are looking for a home for foreign direct investment (FDI), then I will say power is one of the very important sectors and the biggest opportunity,’’ Aganga said.

He said opportunities in the power sector cut across the value chain involving power generation, transmission, distribution and production of the turbines.

The Minister also said the return on investment in the road sector was equally high, especially in areas with toll routes.
