Student Sylvia Negumbo lost her school money when a fire burned her home at Walvis Bay on Wednesday. She might miss exams because she cannot pay the fees after the flames took everything. Three students lived together in the shack that burned down. Her sister Secilia studies education but has lost all her school clothes, books, and laptop. The cold weather makes life harder without blankets or warm things.
Fires hit 21 families across five days, with twelve homes lost just Wednesday night. Police leader Judith Shomongula says someone saw smoke coming from a shack first. Nobody knows what started these fires yet. Other homes burned Sunday and Monday, with eight shacks gone. School kids asked for help after losing all their stuff in the flames.
