Governor Abdullahi Ganduje, who received the cheque at the Government House, said the committee raised about N1.2 billion for the victims. He said the Judicial Commission of Enquiry raised to assess the cost of damages ascertained the number of traders affected, and the extent of damages Ganduje assured the traders that disbursement will begin soon. He added that President Muhammadu Buhari has sent a delegation to conduct a survey on the installation of solar panels in Sabon Gari market, a project partnering the government. Besides redeeming its N500 million pledge, the governor said the government would provide infrastructure in markets, including access roads, fire service outstations, police stations, malls to accommodate road-side kiosks, and iron tables for petty traders, to curb fire incidents.
