Uganda, April 27 -- Fire on Tuesday morning burnt Grace House, one of the girls' dormitory at King's College Budo in Wakiso District.

The fire is said to have started while students were already in class for morning prep.

Mr Eddie Ssewaje, the LC I chairperson of Nagalabi village and one of the first responders at the scene, told this reporter that the fire started from the two-storied dormitory which hosts senior one and three students at around 6:30 am.

"We saw smoke coming out and we rushed to find out what was happening. We found the building burning. It was so frightening," Mr Ssewaje said.

According to him, the incident evoked the memories from April 2008 when fire gutted the neighbouring Budo Junior School leaving 19 pupils dead....
