The Special Assistant to Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed on Emergency and Relief Matters, Alhaji Musa Abdullahi who distributed the materials at the victims' residence, Ile-Alaaro, Gambari area in Ilorin East local government, also disclosed that the state government had received 250 reports of fire outbreak across the 16 local government areas of the state which are on the lists of victims that would be catered for.
The government, he said was worried about the victims of the compound whose homes, household materials and livelihood were lost to the inferno saying "government had lost sleep over the issue, because we thought that you will not find a place to live.
The Special Assistant who noted that government could not fully compensate them on the property lost, said they could pick up their lives from the relief materials distributed to them stressing that the administration believes in people's comfort and would continue to ensure their lives were properly protected.
