“I was visiting relatives in Matangari village when my phone suddenly rang. As I’m unemployed, I thought I was going to receive good news, because I keep on applying for jobs on a daily basis.

I quickly ran home and it was a painful sight to watch helplessly as all my efforts for many years were eaten by the angry fire. I’m now devastated, disappointed and very sad. I thank God because there was no one in the house when the mysterious fire broke.”
