The Kano State government says it will thoroughly investigate the cause of the fire outbreak that gutted the Gwale Local Government Council secretariat.
The incident, which occurred on December 13, affected 18 offices and destroyed properties worth millions of naira.

Mr Gwarzo, who doubles as the commissioner for local government and chieftaincy affairs, urged the people of the state to remain calm and law-abiding.
He assured that despite the tension in the state due to the pending period of judgement, the present administration would not be distracted from providing laudable projects that will uplift the well-being of the people.
“I assure you that we will not relent until the culprits are found and brought to justice.

“All residents are advised to keep calm and be rest assured that the present administration is on top of the situation and is fully prepared to deal with any person found constituting a threat to peaceful coexistence in the state.
