“There is the need to reduce response time in times of emergency by being closer to the communities,” he said.

Mukaddas said that the fire service, a department within the agency, had presented letters of transfer to chairmen of the 23 local government councils in the state.

He called on the people of the state to be proactive and vigilant in order to avoid fire outbreak in their respective areas.
