Six of the dead are adults while two are children. They are part of the 14 who have been retrieved from a heap of Garbage that covered the area after the tragedy.
Expired goods such as salt, sugar, baking flour, eggs, cooking oil, wheat flour, maize flour and beverages are among the over 1,200 tons of garbage disposed of the landfill each month but somehow find their way back into retail and wholesale shops and supermarkets for sale.
