Black Bush Damage
Residents of Black Bush Polder, mainly from the Yakusari and Johanna Polders, were crying out for assistance yesterday when this news team visited.
Mookesh Sagadeo of Yakusari North, lost his roof, too. He is the sole occupant of the house and he was just returning home from the market when he made the startling discovery.
Another resident of Yakusari said that she, her husband and six-month-old baby lost their roof, too. “The roof fly out by itself with the breeze—around 12 o’ clock time,†she added.
But perhaps one of the more notable stories out of yesterday’s storm came out of Michelle Singh of Lot 7, Yakusari, whose two daughters were nearly crushed to death as their wooden home was blown off its posts. The other daughter was with her grandmother at the time.
