The motorcycle section of the Sokoto Central market has been gutted by fire.
Gistmania reports that fire started early on Monday morning though its cause could not be immediately established.
The chairman of Motorcycles Marketers Association, Shehu Muhammad, according to the report, said they could not quantify the number of motorcycles destroyed by fire because the fire was still raging.
“We cannot quantify the number of motorcycles burnt down by the fire now because the fire is still raging.
“But many people lost their shops along with their motorcycles because they could not come in time as the fire started around 6am.
“But men of the federal and state fire services are currently battling, but I know it will take some time before they can quench it all,” he said.
