Sources within the palace reported that the affected area was at Kofar Kudu, a section where the Emir holds court sessions every Monday. “It was the palace at Kofar Kudu. You know the palace has an entrance from inside while the main entrance is from the front (outside). The key was forced open and what was suspected was that they broke in, set the fire and locked the door,” said a source.

The fire reportedly destroyed the throne, air conditioners, and other valuables within the palace. Despite the severity of the damage, the Kano State Fire Service was not notified.

The State Fire Service Public Relations Officer, Saminu Yusif Abudullahi, stated, “The command was not aware of the incident as there was no call regarding the incident at any of the agency’s centres.”
