Yobe governor donates N100 million to GSM Market fire victims
Yobe State governor, Mai Mala Buni, has made a N100 million cash donation to the victims of Tuesday’s Damaturu GSM Market fire.
The governor announced the donation on Wednesday, when he visited the market to sympathise with the victims.
He also directed the State Emergency Management Agency to assess the level of damage for possible intervention by the State Government.
Praying for Allah’s protection against future occurrences, Mr Buni promised his administration’s commitment to continue to support the traders.
The fire destroyed property worth over N150 million, including over 30 shops at the market, commonly called Kasuwar Jagwal.
