A fire outbreak has destroyed several houses, cattle, and silos in Satigal, Bunkure Local Government Area of Kano State.
The incident was reported to the Emir of Rano, Ambassador Dr Muhammad Isa Umaru, at his palace by the village head, Shuaibu Abdu, who led a delegation of community leaders. He stated that the fire engulfed six households, destroying goods, grains, livestock, and personal belongings worth millions of naira.
The midnight inferno was reportedly caused by a cooking fire left unattended by one of the affected families.
Expressing his sympathy, the Emir of Rano donated ₦200,000 to support the victims and urged the community to take precautions by ensuring cooking fires are properly extinguished after use. He also pledged to report the incident to the Kano State Emergency Relief Management Agency for immediate assistance.
