The Kano State Fire Service says it saved six lives and property worth N16 million from 12 fire incidents in August.
This is contained in a statement by the Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the Service, Saminu Abdullahi, on Wednesday in Kano.
He said that three persons lost their lives, while property worth N10 million destroyed by fire during the period under review.
“The Service responded to eight rescue calls and five false alarms from residents of the state,” he said.
The spokesman warned motorists against use of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) cylinders in their vehicles and power generators to avert inferno.
“Rather look for Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) for safety”.
He also advised residents of the state to handle fire with care and clear drains to avert unforeseen circumstances. (NAN). READ ALSO:
