President Bola Tinubu has sympathised with traders affected by the recent fire outbreak at Singer Market in Kano and ordered a comprehensive investigation into the incident.
This was disclosed in a statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga.
The fire reportedly broke out on Saturday evening and continued into Sunday morning, destroying goods and causing extensive damage in the food market.
In the statement seen by Dockaysworld, the President described the incident as tragic and expressed concern that it occurred less than two weeks after a similar blaze razed parts of the same market.
Tinubu, who had earlier contacted Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf for a situation report, directed a full-scale probe into the recurring fires.
He ordered a “comprehensive investigation” into the causes of the market infernos, noting that such incidents often leave traders devastated.
