Ugwuanyi who had earlier directed the State Emergency Management Agency, SEMA, to meet with the victims, when he visited the scene shortly after the inferno was put out by the State Fire Service, thereafter met with them at the Government House and gave them financial assistance.
One of the victims, whose boutique was burnt and who spoke on behalf of others, Mrs. Esther Okpara, disclosed that the governor gave the three affected shop owners the sum of N500,000 each; N250,000 to another shop owner with less damage and agreed to replace the burnt commercial bus and two tricycles for the owners.
