Some part of the popular grocery market, Singer in Kano State has been gutted by fire.
Operatives of the state fire service are currently working towards bringing the inferno under control.
Singer market is basically for wholesale and retail trading of confectionery, flours, packed food items like pasta as well as soft drinks among others.
Daily Trust understands that the affected store belongs to Mimza general enterprises.
Muhammad Abdullahi, an employee of the company, said the cause of the incident is unknown but electrical surge was suspected.
“It is the biggest store of the company, they store largely Chewing gum, sweets, milk and other things. We cannot say what caused the fire, maybe electrical. I was called this morning that fire has caught our shop, that’s how I hurriedly came and saw what’s happening.
I cannot quantify the loss, honestly, it’s going to be millions because even yesterday they uploaded goods worth millions.”
