The visit was in recognition of the swift response by firemen who quenched a major fire outbreak at Gamboru Market in Maiduguri, preventing destruction from escalating to the magnitude witnessed two weeks ago at the Maiduguri Monday Market.
Zulum told the firemen that he was impressed with their gallantry and for that he approved the release of N14.9 million as grants to about 149 firemen operating under both the federal and state fire services. “I am here purposely to convey my deep appreciation to all of you for the great work you have been doing. Yesterday we had another fire disaster at Gamboru market and I was informed of your efforts towards quenching the fire. This goes to show how committed you are and we want to once again extend our appreciation to you”, Zulum said.
The beneficiaries consisted of 60 firemen working with Borno State government, 49 working with the Federal Fire Service, as well as 38 volunteer-firefighters.
