A family in Burat, Isiolo County, has been left homeless after a fire burned down their house.

Mohammed Noor claimed the fire broke out late at night, leaving the family of twelve stranded without a place to call home.

He estimates the damage to the property could be up to Ksh.6 million. The house was near their hotel and a mobile money transfer service.

According to preliminary investigations, the fire may have started due to a family disagreement.

Noor demanded a comprehensive investigation to determine the source of the incident.

He also asked for help from well-wishers while the family worked to repair their house.
