The Children Who Never Had a Chance: Four Kids Burnt to Death


The metropolitan of Yenagoa Bayelsa state capital witnessed a tragic event in the early part of today at Opolo, involving four kids who were burnt to death in the absence of their mother. From a close source, we learned that the mother of the four kids had left the children yesterday evening in her shack of a home to hustle for the night in preparation for Xmas. The mother of the dead kids who could not be controlled by her loss despite good neighbors who tried to calm her down swore to take her life. We are yet to ascertain the cause of the fire which the neighbors claim not to know.

Though some neighbors who we interview show no remorse for the victim. From the side talk gossip of two ladies, we learned that she had numerous men who come around to take her out for the night, leaving the children all alone to take care of themselves.
We later learned that the mother of the kids drank snipper (a popular mosquito killer) in other to take her life. Presently, she is admitted to the Federal Medical Center (F.M.C) Yenagoa.
