Kano
State Government is to redesign the Farm Centre GSM market in the state
capital, so as to avert major security threats and to make the complex
more conducive for daily commercial undertakings, the state governor,
Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje has revealed.
Dr.
Ganduje who visited the market to commiserate with the traders and to
establish the extent of damage caused by yesterday’s bomb blasts that
resulted in loss of lives, injuries and damage to property regretted
that its design and location have made it open to attack by evil minded
people.
The
governor, however, urged the GSM traders to be extra careful in dealing
with customers and to adopt special security surveillance to ensure
that those with sinister intentions do not gain entrance into the market
to disrupt legitimate endeavors.
While
praying to Almighty Allah to grant those that lost their lives in the
bomb blasts heavenly bliss, he promised that the state government would
pay the medical bills of all the injured victims.
Governor
Ganduje later visited, Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital, Murtala Mohammed
Specialist Hospital and Abdullahi Wase Hospital in Kano state to
commiserate with the victims who are currently receiving treatment.
The
State Commissioner of Police, Alhaji Muhammed Musa Katsina, who
accompanied the governor, said 11 people lost their lives while about 53
others suffered varying degree of injuries.
