Fire engulfs ex-governor Shekarau’s Kano residence

 The Mundubawa country home of former governor Mallam Ibrahim
Shekarau has been gutted by Fire, destroying the sitting room of his second
Wife, Halima Shekarau.

Although the fire was suspected to have started from the
kitchen, the actual cause could not be immediately ascertained.

Officials of the State Fire Service struggled to put it off.

A source close to the family told our correspondent that the
fire started from the inner kitchen.

He said, “we thank God the fire only affected one of Mallam
Ibrahim Shekarau’s sitting room and already the Fire Service officials are
working to quench it.”
