A newly built home in Ejeba, Delta State, was engulfed by fire barely two weeks after the owner moved in.
The tragic event was first reported by a lady on social media who wrote, “This happened at Ejeba. A young man’s newly built house went up in flames and it’s not even up to 2 weeks the guy packed in. The fire started due to wrong solar panel connection.”
A video circulating online showed thick plumes of smoke and intense flames consuming the building, with neighbours and passersby watching helplessly as the inferno raged.
Witnesses said that the fire, suspected to have started from a faulty solar panel installation, quickly spread through the structure, leaving the homeowner with heavy losses.
As of the time of this report, it was unclear whether any emergency services responded to the blaze, and the total extent of the damage had yet to be officially assessed.
