Asaba—A set of twins, aged two and a half years were roasted alive while household property were destroyed following a mysterious fire incident that occurred in Asaba, Delta State, in the early hours of Sunday.

The incident occurred at a make-shift apartment owned by a couple, Mr. and Mrs. Samuel James, located on Marym Babangida Way Asaba.

Vanguard gathered that both the father and mother of the twin girls came outside to receive fresh air while the kids were left sleeping inside the room.

But unfortunately, according to the father of the twins, “while we were relaxing outside, we slept off only to wake up at about 1a.m., to discover that our children, our belongings had been burnt.”

Other items lost in the inferno were television set, mattresses, clothes, a small generator, handsets and other personal belongings including cooking utensils.
