Inferno Sweeps Through Kitwe Lodge

An inferno has swept through part of Dazzi Lodge in Kitwe’s Chachacha Township destroying property worth thousands of money.

A check on the scene found a team of fire officers from the Kitwe City Council putting out the fire.

The fire is alleged to have started from the grass thatched bar but was put off before it could spread to other parts of the business premises.

An eye witness said the fire started around 19:30hrs sweeping through the grass thatched bar.

“We just saw smoke coming out from the bar side, immediately we alerted the brigade who also responded quickly, they did a good job and managed to put out the fire in no time,” one of the witnesses said.

However, the cause of the fire has not yet been established.
