“The Service responded to 83 rescue calls and 14 false alarms from residents of the state,” Abdullahi added.

He attributed most of the fire incidents in the state to careless handling of cooking gas and the use of inferior electrical appliances.

Abdullahi advised residents to always handle fire with care to prevent outbreaks.

The PRO also urged parents to stop their wards’ from swimming in open water and playing near Groundwater Wells.
