The incident occurred while her 17-year-old daughter was asleep inside. Forbes believes the attack was directed at her, not her children. Police were alerted to the incident at around 10:35pm on Monday, and the family was safely accommodated elsewhere. The fire destroyed most of their belongings, leaving only their Bibles and identity documents intact. Forbes and her family are receiving support from the community and are determined to continue their political and community work.",
