The Kano State Police Command says it will provide adequate security to the Pharmaceutical Traders of Sabon Gari market scheduled to move to the New Kano Economic City, Dangwauro.
The command said that it would ensure the security of the traders during and after the transporting of their goods to the new market.
The Commissioner of Police, Hussaini Gumel, gave the assurance in an interview with newsmen in Kano on Sunday.
Gumel said that the command had put in place security measures that would enable the traders transport their goods in a peaceful atmosphere.
To that effect, he said, an Operational Order with specific roles, had been given to the Area Commander and the Divisional Police Officers(DPOs) in Fagge and Kumbosto local government areas of the state.
He said that the security measures would prevent hoodlums from looting innocent traders’ shops during and after the relocation exercise.
“We have mobilised sufficient armed personnel to provide security in all the routes leading to the newly-established pharmaceutical market at Dangwauro in Kumbosto Local Government Area.
“I am giving 100 percent assurance to all law abiding traders of the state to go about transporting their goods freely without threat to lives and property,” the commissioner said.
