Queen Ure Recalls Fire Experience, Says I LOST ALL

Queen Ure has recalled the fire experience she recently
encountered at her apartment in Omole, Lagos. Ure says only God rescued her. According
to her, though she lost all her belongings; shoes, clothes, jewelry, electronics
and important documents in the fire, she might also have died during the
inferno but God woke her. She said this to Sunday Sun in a chat;

 “It’s a miracle that
I’m alive to tell the story, it’s a miracle that I survived the fire out break
at all. Please join me in thanking The Lord for his mercies. I was sleeping in
the sitting room and had dozed off. I don’t know the exact time the fire
started but I woke up at about 12.30am, it was actually the sound of the
explosion of the TV in the room that woke me up!

“I was in shock; I didn’t exactly know what to do. I live
alone so I tried to get water but I knew it would be useless because the whole
room was already on fire and the entire house was filled with smoke so I ran
out and from the balcony I started shouting for help.”

“It was really bad. Before people could come around, get a
ladder and start making efforts to put out the fire it had done a lot of damage
but I thank God for life.

“In fact, while they were trying to put it out the air
conditioner exploded, you can imagine the flames. When I looked at my body, I
was black all over. That was when I realized I must have been there sleeping
for a long while, thank God for the sound of the explosion of the TV, I
probably wouldn’t have woken up; I just thank God,” says Queen who also reveals
that her entire bedroom was burnt and she lost everything including
electronics, jewelry, shoes, all her clothes and important documents.

“I’m great, I’ve been singing and thanking God and
celebrating, if you put a dead body beside material things, it won’t wake up.
I’ll replace all those things I lost by God’s grace, this was not a tragedy,
it’s a big testimony.”
