How My Daughter Survived When Fire Gutted Her Apartment – Adedoyin

Media guru and secretary of International Press Institute (IPI), Oloriewe Raheem Adedoyin, has told how his daughter was saved when his house was razed by fire in Lagos.

He told NewsmakersNG in a statement today: “I confirm that the apartment of my daughter, Zainab Adejumoke Adedoyin (aka JMK) in Parkview Estate, Ikoyi, Lagos, was razed by fire in the early hours of Tuesday, 16th November 2021

“The fire, ignited by an electrical fault, started from her room and engulfed other sections of the apartment.

“Firefighters stationed in the Estate eventually put out the fire. Mercifully, no life was lost, and no one was physically injured despite the massive destruction of the property.

 “Zainab lost all her belongings in the apartment (wears, electronics, certificates, international passports, phones, etc) to the inferno.

“Although traumatized, she is presently in good shape and is making efforts to retrieve her certificates and other vital documents.

“She will come online and make statements on her verified social media accounts as soon as she retrieves the sim card she uses for those accounts.

“Again, Zainab is in good shape, and we thank the Almighty Allah for His favours on her and the family.”
