Mr Aboi said the fire incidents occurred in Kaduna, Zaria and Kafanchan.
He attributed the decline in fire outbreaks in the state to the massive sensitisation by stakeholders and the persistent rainfall recorded within the period.
The director called on residents to be careful when handling electrical appliances and inflammable materials.
He said the Kaduna government was working on decentralising the fire service to reduce response time to five minutes in case of emergencies.
