Last Friday in Sierra Leone's capital Freetown, a fire in the busy neighbourhood of Wellington killed scores and injured many more. The fire was caused by a leak from a fuel tanker and many people had been drawn to danger to collect the precious fuel to resell or power their vehicles.From Freetown, Sally Hayden reports on what happened on Friday and since, the obvious link between poverty and the unnecessary deaths, and how Sierra Leoneans are weary of always being a bad news story.
