This, he said was in addition to another soft loan of N3billion already distributed to traders across the state by the PDP led administration recently.
According to a statement signed by his special adviser on media and publicity, Muhammad Bello, the state government will soon reconstruct the affected parts of the Sokoto Central market razed by the inferno.
Bello said the governor stated this while receiving the newly elected executives of the Sokoto State Chamber of Commerce, Mines and Agriculture (SOCCIMA) and Sokoto Traders Association (STA).

The governor also appealed to the traders to consider the current economic hardship being experienced by the people by subsidising their products.
