Fire outbreak

    In most informal settlements in Kenya today,there are frequent fire outbreaks and this is a great alert that the government should get concerned with the informal settlements also known as slums.
    An informal settlement in Ngomongo slum area of Nairobi caught fire and almost one hundred people were injured including children.The fire left an estimated two thousand people homeless,without anywhere to go to.
    The Kenya Red Cross and some NGO's had come in and help save the situation.They gave out blankets,tents,maize meal(flour),beans,rice and even water to the affected people.They were forced to move to other places and make their tents.
    This is not a permanent solution as the government should put in measures to ensure fire cases are reduced.
