A sad incident has claimed the lives of two young girls after they were locked in a room by their elder sister who went to sleep with the boyfriend. A sad incident has led to the death of two sisters who were burnt to death in a mysterious fire which occurred in the early hours of today in Gbajimba, Benue State.
Jude Akase who narrated the sad story said that the elder sister of the two dead girls locked them in their one room around 12 midnight before leaving to go spend the night with her boyfriend.
"CALAMITY BEFALL MY NEIGHBORHOOD AT THE EARLY HOURS OF TODAY.
It was 5:30 am when a neighbor came knocking on my door , SAATER! Saater!! Saater, I asked mama what happen? she answered, come with me and see some thing. I followed her to a house where hundreds of people were already standing. What has happened? I was told two girls from the same mother were burnt to death.
How it started.
Three girls from the same mother have been staying in the same room. They leave the village to school in makurdi. The elderly one often leave the room in the night to his boy's friend house. She always finds it difficult to come back to the room quietly as it always take several knocks and time for the younger ones to open the room for her. Some times, she is not at home with them.
So yesterday, according to her, she locked the door outside with a padlock around 12 something A.M and head to her boyfriend's house with the aim of coming back early as usual. Like I told you earlier, I was there around 5:47am with mama, the the two girls where dead lying covered in there room.
Fire whose source could not be determined had burnt the mattress where the two girls where sleeping. One of them lack oxygen and died instantly why. The other tried to open the door but couldn't as the door was locked outside.
A good neighbor who came quite early forcefully opened the door and found the other one dead why the other had little breath and was rushed to the hospital but it was too late already. Her dead body was returned home immediately without delay and placed side by side to her late sister.
The lady returned from her boyfriend's house close to six o'clock and met hundreds of people in her house.
A man asked, where have you gone? , the lady replied what I did not hear but later went in and found her two sisters dead. The boyfriend came around and received the beating of his life, the girl whose age can not be more than 16 by my own assessment told the crowd not to beat the little guy.
The girl's school mate visited and it was cry all over. What a tragedy. The girls parents arrived later and the dead bodies have since been taken to the village for burial. It is really a mystery how the fire came in to the room."
