The Shalom Nursery and Primary School, Damaturu in Yobe State owned by the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) has been razed by a strange fire.<\/p>\n
It was gathered the fire started from the primary block of the school, burning the books, desks and the entire block to ashes.<\/p>\n
The Headteacher of the school, Mrs. Kemi Bature, said the staff and management of the school are confused and still cannot determine the cause of the fire.<\/p>\n
She informed the school uses a prepaid electrical billing system and always puts off the entire electrical system in the school anytime pupils are away.<\/p>\n
She explained the fire has caused serious damage to the entire class block, the children\u2019s books and other records, adding the losses run into millions.<\/p>\n
Mrs. Bature also informed the fire was detected by some of the neighbors, who alerted a teacher before they contacted the state firefighting department.<\/p>\n
It was learnt that police explosive detectives have visited the school to comb the area for any possible explosive or a strange inflammable item that might have ignited the fire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
