I have no idea what a gas hob cooker is but if it has controls like
a stovetop, did someone try to clean the surface or controls with
something wet? There may be some residual liquid in there conducting
current.

A hob is Brittish slang for a stovetop or range. A "gas hob cooker" is
a gas stove.

When my wife gives ours a good ' birthday ', with lots of water and cleaning
solutions flying around, it fires on its own for days. Drives you up the
wall. All over the house ( and it's a big house ), you can hear CLICK ! -
CLICK ! - CLICK ! .......

It's like a Chinese water torture. It does eventually go away after about a
week, when all of the water has dried out of the push switches, located just
under the knobs.

Hob = cooktop.
