The lessons learned form this incident are :
If you noticed that there is a gas leak when you enter your home/apartment, never and ever switch any ignition sources such as switching the lights on or the exhaust fan even in the dark (avoid all kind of sparks). The Best advise is first not to panic ! then shut down the leak from the sourceand open all available doors and windows to get rid of the gas from your home. To be on safe side allow enaugh time to subside the foul smell of Gas.
Ahsante kwa tahadhari ilo lizingatiwe hasa kwetu sisi kwa maisha yetu ya kibongo ambayo unakuta mtu umepanga chumba kimoja kinawakilisha kila kitu(chumba,Jiko,sebure n.k)!
