Another victim, a widow named Fortune Javure who also lost part of her home narrated her ordeal and said: > We had to quickly remove the furniture which was in the affected rooms. Some of the property was heavily soaked by water while some of the electric gadgets were also damaged. It’s a relief that I was not injured as I managed to escape together with my four children, > The rains lasted about 15 minutes but they caused severe damage and I am still in a state of shock. I don’t even know how I will raise money to replace the damaged property since I am a widow Many people who spoke to the Chronicle about the downpour said they were shocked by the short but devastating downpour.
