On Thursday night, in Nairobi’s Umoja III area, a fire broke out, killing two siblings.
Prior to the event, which investigators believe was caused by a candle that was lighting the house, reports state that the children’s mother had left them alone in the house.
Authorities claim that the fire spread to other homes, destroying more than 20 buildings and forcing about thirty families to flee their homes.
With the joint efforts of the Nairobi Fire Brigade and the locals, the fire was put out.
The minors bodies were taken to a nearby mortuary for storage while the incident’s inquiry is ongoing.
