The Kano State Hisbah Board has declared Suspended Jigawa Commissioner of Special Duties, Auwal Danladi Sankara, wanted.
The Hisbah Commander General, Sheikh Aminu Ibrahim Daurawa, made this announcement on Monday.
He said that Sankara was granted bail on the condition that he would appear before the command whenever requested.
However, despite being invited today, Sankara refused to comply.
Daurawa stated that Sankara’s refusal to appear violated the bail conditions, and the Hisbah Board would now search for and arrest him.
“The reason we invited him today was for reconciliation,” Daurawa explained. “The complainant agreed to reconcile with Sankara due to his two children. We agreed to this and invited him to come for the reconciliation.”
“Had he appeared today, we would not have taken him to court tomorrow,” Daurawa continued. “As Hisbah members, Islam is our guidance, and it encourages reconciliation. However, by all indications, he does not want reconciliation, so we will proceed with legal action.”
“Despite the fact that we arrested him together with someone’s wife, she even injured five Hisbah personnel with her car while trying to escape from us. We have videos and evidence of all this. I personally called him several times today, and he confirmed that he would come. But later, he switched off his phone. Now he is wanted, and our people will arrest him wherever they see him,” Daurawa added.
Speaking after the press conference, the complainant, Nasiru Bulama, said he agreed to reconciliation because he has two male children with the woman and doesn’t want to embarrass them. However, since Sankara refused to come for the reconciliation, they will now meet in court.
“I want justice,” Bulama stated.
