Kano Police urge peace, patriotism ahead of court’s sitting

The Kano State Police Command has called on the public to remain peaceful and patriotic as the Federal High Court prepares to hear sensitive cases related to the Emirship tussle.

This is contained in a statement issued by its spokesman, SP Abdullahi Jigawa, in Kano on Thursday.

Kiyawa reiterated the commitment of the command to protect lives and property, while warning against any attempt to incite violence.

“In collaboration with other law enforcement agencies, the command will strictly enforce the ban on public protests, processions and unlawful gatherings imposed by the state government.

“Violators and their sponsors will face legal consequences.

“Adequate security personnel will be deployed to maintain law and order.

“The public is urged to cooperate with the security forces and provide actionable information to preserve peace and detect deviants.

“Non-state actors, including vigilantes and hunters, are advised to refrain from participating in security operations under any guise,” he said. (NAN)
