“It started in Namudama’s restaurant spreading to both ends of the pool wing and the lorry park gate. We tried to put out fire but its force was severe. We tried to pour water and employ all tactics not until it faded away” He says
He adds that the incident was terrible as sympathizers were fighting fire , looters did steal the property
“Once they saw huge fire flames in the air , they came quickly pretending to help instead just raided the kiosks making away with cooking utensils, drinking water glasses among others.
