3 Children Burnt To Death By Candle Light After Maid Sneaked Out To Visit Boyfriend [Photos]

A Nigerian family has been left heartbroken after their three children were burnt to death in a domestic fire outbreak caused by candlelight on Friday night (yesterday).

According to Facebook user Chuks Nonso, the children’s father was at work (night shift) while the mother went for a vigil and the housemaid who was assigned to take care of the children.

But she allegedly sneaked out of the home to be with her boyfriend without putting out the burning candle light which later causes an inferno in the house.

The children were burnt beyond recognition as help couldn’t come their way on time.
