Properties worth billions of naira have been destroyed by fire at the Katsina State main market, popularly called Central Market.
It was learnt that the inferno started around 8am on Monday and continued to ravage shops at the market, as some yet to be affected traders trooped out to evacuate their goods before the raging fire reached their shops.
Hundreds of youths were also seen around the market assisting to evacuate items from other shops, whilst others were making desperate efforts to put out the fire.
The source of the fire has yet to be determined along with information about the number of casualties.
The market is the only international market around there where a lot of trading takes place.
