Those present at the scene could be heard hoping that no lives were taken by the fire as its intensity grew.
It has since been suspected that the students could have set the house on fire as they were heard shouting some slogans.
It has also been established through sources that the students hindered any efforts to put off the fire, chasing away volunteers.
“Lari Boys High School was set on fire by the students themselves. I have witnessed it first hand. We went to contain the fire minutes after they set it ablaze, but the students could chase us away, thus hindering the rescue.
When we reached there, the principal’s office, the staffroom, library were all gone.” read a post on Facebook
