The incident occurred around 1:53 p.m. on April 20, when the fire service received a distress call from a resident, Hamza Muhammad who alerted of the fire at Kwanar Yan Kifi, Rijiyar Zaki.

Firefighters from the agency’s headquarters, Rijiyar Zaki, and Bompai stations were immediately deployed to the scene to curb the inferno.
