Governor of Kano State, Abba Yusuf, has banned all public demonstrations within the state, and has directed security forces to arrest any individuals involved in such activities.
According to the governor’s office, it has “credible intelligence indicating that certain prominent figures from the opposition party in Kano have devised plans to sponsor student associations and political agitators from other northwestern states to incite chaos under the guise of advocating for the dethroned Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero.”
Governor Yusuf, however, appealed to the citizens, to continue their daily activities without fear, assuring them of the state’s stability.
This development comes following the controversial re-instatement of Sanusi Lamido II as the Emir of Kano.
