A fire incident occurred in the early hours of Saturday, October 14, 2023, at Kabong, Gada Biyu in the Jos North Local Government Area of Plateau State killing at least five people.

The fire was attributed to a high-tension cable that bridged with service wires which supplied electricity to the community, resulting in the loss of lives and destruction of properties.

The fire also consumed goods at the business premises and left others injured during the incident.
