<p>“The cause of the fire is yet to be determined. We could only watch helplessly as officials of the Kano State Fire Service battled to contain the inferno,” the trader said.</p>
<p>He further disclosed that the fire extended to a nearby building occupied by the international courier company, DHL, where part of the roof was damaged by the flames.</p>
<p>The affected market, located between the DHL office and First City Monument Bank (FCMB) along Murtala Mohammed Way, is widely known for the sale of household and office furnishing items, including furniture, carpets, air conditioners, refrigerators, mattresses, televisions and other interior decoration materials.</p>
<p>As of the time of filing this report, the exact cause of the fire had not been officially established, while authorities were yet to provide an estimate of the total value of property destroyed.</p>
<p>Traders affected by the incident have appealed to the government and relevant authorities for support as they begin to assess the extent of their losses and rebuild their businesses.</p>
