The Kano State command of the Nigeria Police Force has confirmed a tragic fire incident at a mosque in the Laraba Abasawa area of Gezawa Local Government Area of Kano. The police stated that they have apprehended the individual responsible for the fire, which occurred in the early hours of Wednesday, May 15, 2024.

According to AIG Umar Mamman Sanda, one of the worshippers affected by the incident has tragically passed away. Sanda revealed this information while leading a delegation of security personnel, including the Commissioner of Police in the State and the Director of Department of State Services (DSS), to the Murtala Muhammad Specialist Hospital, Kano, where the victims of the mosque fire are receiving treatment.

Sanda explained, “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 dissatisfied with the distribution… and reacted to it. He is currently in custody and providing useful information. Out of the 24 individuals admitted here, one has unfortunately died. It is truly unfortunate. The suspect used a locally made bomb to commit the crime.”

Sanda subsequently appealed for calm as the issue has been addressed by the security authorities, emphasizing that the state government is making every effort to ensure adequate medical assistance for the patients currently undergoing treatment.
