Speaking with Ika Weekly Newspaper reporter at the scene, the occupant of the building (Name with heard) said he and his wife were sleeping on that fateful day when they heard a thunderous noise on their roof.
In his words, “I was sleeping when I heard a loud noise like an earthquake on the roof, I stood up and started praying, and while praying, I gathered courage and opened my door with a torch light and flashed it to know if I can see anything but I did not.
“Suddenly I heard someone’s voice on the roof top, and then I flashed the light towards the direction of the voice.
