The fire affected about 50 shops, destroyed 132 grinding machines and significant quantities of food items, including rice, millet, and beans, worth millions of naira.

The state deputy governor, Alhaji Idris Mohammed Gobir, who visited the scene to sympathise with the victims announced that the government would set up a committee to assess the damage and identify measures to prevent similar incidents in the future.

Gobir emphasised the importance of taking precautions during the harmattan season, which increases the risk of fire outbreaks, assuring victims that the government would provide support once the committee submits its report.

The fire had a significant impact on local businesses, affecting both indigenous and non-indigenous traders.
