No fewer than 37 shops and stalls were razed down by an early morning inferno in Potiskum market, Yobe State.

The Chairman of United Marketers Association of Potiskum, Nasiru Mato said the fire outbreak, whose cause was yet to be ascertained, began around 3:00 am yesterday.

A resident, Bello Musa, said they mobilised people to put out the fire but they could only do little as the inferno intensified beyond their efforts.

Buni, in a statement by his spokesman, Mamman Mohammed, said he had directed the State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) to provide the victims with all the necessary emergency support and to take stock of damages caused by the inferno.
