Babatunji Wusu –

The terrible fire event at a mosque in the Laraba Abasawa region of Gezawa Local Government region of Kano has been confirmed by the Nigeria Police Force’s Kano State command.
The culprit responsible for the early-morning fire incident on Wednesday, May 15, 2024, has been taken into custody, according to the police.

AIG Umar Mamman Sanda reported that one of the worshippers involved in the event had passed away.

When he escorted a group of security officers, including the State’s Commissioner of Police and the Director of the Department of State Services (DSS), to the Murtala Muhammad Specialist Hospital in Kano, where the victims of the mosque fire are receiving medical attention, the police chief revealed this.

 

He said, “What happened is not associated with any act of terrorism, but rather, it was a skirmish that arose as a result of inheritance distribution.

“The suspect was said to be not satisfied with the distribution … and was reacting to that. He is presently with us and is giving out useful information. Out of the 24 that were admitted here, one is dead. It is really unfortunate. He used a locally made bomb to commit the crime.”
