They failed to take safety measures.

They paid the high price.

Lessons for the still living.

This can't be true, how can 32 adult be in a room and not even a single person could detect the carbon fume or a common sense that a tragedy is about to befall them?

They were all asleep.

Wow. Shocking. They should focus more on food poisoning.

I strongly believe it's a carbon monoxide or the fumes because It's absolutely wrong to operate a generator or anything that produces fumes in a closed doors where there's no adequate ventilations.

I think you have no idea how dangerous that smokes could be. It's unavoidable as far as y'all are fast asleep without positioning the the plant in a well suitable environment. You worst is that you wouldn't even notice the strange fumes you are inhaling. Only someone who isn't yet asleep could detect and saves the lives of everyone from the dangerous fumes called carbon monoxide. Stay safe

That's why education is the key. No matter how successful you think you have made it. But common knowledge should always be applied. I'm so sure the westerners wouldn't fall for this stupid ignorance act of we Africa. I pray their family could bear this unforseen fortitude that has triggered this outrageous adversity.

In a house and not a room; possible.

Sometimes, guests that choose to pass the night after such ceremony care less about the comfort away from home cos they are basically group of friends who spend most of the night drinking and chatting, so you might find 10 people sleeping in a room.

Generator emits carbon monoxide; a toxic, invisible, colourless and odourless gas, hence, no one may have perceived it before it does the harm. It kills fast because it displaces the oxygen in our body.

You can't perceive any strategy because it's not your house and you may have thought the Gen was placed in a very airy environment, remember some generators make very little sound when running. It is also dangerous to face the exhaust pipe of a gen set towards an enclosed area, that is like you kept it in such an enclosure.

We don't pray for such though and awareness/education is the key.

This story, smells to high heavens! But alas, there is nothing strange anymore, one will not hear.
Taking it as it's highlighted, the provider of the accommodation, shouldn't be bothered :if you are irresponsible enough to be ready to sleep in such room, with a working gen, just a door away, and no ventilation, you deserve to die like a wimp! For crying out loud, how stupid can one NE, after stories of carbon monoxide poisoning, widely circulated?
Reminds me of kitchen accidents, from gas explosion :gas smells and it should be obvious something is amiss, before you light up your cooker:so, blame the person only.
Rest in peace to them, anyway

I remember when we traveled to the village, Mehn, the mosquitoes were something else. We bought mosquitoes coils and lit them in the room with windows and doors opened. Midnight, I woke up and couldn't find the coils. Only for my brother to tell me we were all snoring and struggling to breathe, Both children and adults. Since then, I don't use coil again and

Firstly, they were sleeping.
Secondly, CO is an odourless, colourless and tasteless gas. It can kill one while awake because you wouldn't even notice the effects until it is too late and one starts to lose consciousness. It almost killed my friend working with a terrazzo machine in a confined space

Easy on the victims. Just because you're educated and informed didn't mean that they were too or they should too. It happened in a village, and who mostly populates the villages? Illiterates and uninformed people
