The Guyana Fire Service (GFS) says that faulty electrical wiring is to be blamed for the fire at the Children and Family Centre located at Block ‘X’, Plum Park, Sophia, Greater Georgetown yesterday morning.
At about 10.24 hours yesterday, the GFS was alerted to a fire at the two-storey wooden and concrete structure which is owned by the Government of Guyana and occupied by the Ministry of Human Services & Social Security. The top floor of the building served as living quarters, while the ground floor was used as a storage area.
