Fatima Simra Multi-Purpose Market In Kano On Fire by ogododo(op): 6:58am On Feb 20
A dawn fire outbreak has destroyed no fewer than 50 shops at the Fatima Simra Multi-Purpose Market in Dakata area of Kano State.

The chairman of the market’s fire committee, Dauda Haruna Chula, confirmed the incident, saying the inferno started around 5:40am. on Friday.

He explained that the affected shops were mainly small-scale businesses engaged in oil production, as well as recycling of plastics and nylon.

According to him, the fire was still raging as of the 5:40am.

“From the preliminary what we have seen, about 50 shops are already down and the fire is still ongoing. We are still expecting the Kano State Fire Service personnel,” he said.

Chula noted that efforts were made to contact the fire service and other relevant agencies, adding that they had confirmed awareness of the incident.

“We did as much as we could to call them and inform them of the situation on the ground. I can hear the sound of their car right now,” he added.

The extent of damage and possible casualties are yet to be ascertained, but traders expressed concern over the delay in response by emergency services.

This is coming barely one week after a major fire incident affected over 1,000 traders at Singer Market, still in Kano.

I just hope it’s not people that are actually setting these markets on fire. These incidents should be thoroughly investigated

More than likely.

I agree we aren't always HSE compliant, yet I know we have more sinister people when it comes to money.

I believe there are some people who wants goods to skyrocket, that is why they are placing fire on the other opponents business so that there won't be enough goods and services except theirs which will make them to increase the prices of theirs

Imagine coming to disgrace your family line in public.

Re: Fatima Simra Multi-Purpose Market In Kano On Fire by fabolouz1(m): 8:55am On Feb 20
it's high time to believe this is sabotage because it doesn't add up that markets are now taking turns to catch fire in kano and other northern parts of the country in turns.
Are they doing this to get sympathy funds running into billions from the government?
