Kano Governor Urges Residents To Report Suspicious Activities

Kano State governor, Abba Yusuf has called on residents of the state to be vigilant on security issues by reporting any suspicious activity to the appropriate authorities.

Governor Yusuf made the call yesterday while commissioning a mosque at Ranawa town, Gezawa local government area of the state.

The governor who was represented by his deputy Comrade Aminu Abdussalam, stated that “Security should not be taken lightly. You should report any suspicious activity to the appropriate authorities.”
He further called on ward heads to be particularly watchful and ensure no fraudulent activities, such as illegal land or property sales, take place in their areas.

He also warned that any ward head found neglecting their duty to maintain security could risk losing their position.

The governor stressed the importance of forming a hygiene committee to ensure that the mosque remains clean and in good condition.

He also encouraged the mosque committee to go beyond the basics of prayer by introducing programmes aimed at teaching morals, especially to the youth, to promote values that could help curb social vices such as drug abuse, theft and violence.

In his remarks, the district head of Gezawa LGA, Mahmud Yusuf, thanked the state governor for the encouragement and echoed the call for proper maintenance of the mosque.

He also expressed his gratitude to the stakeholders of Gezawa for their continuous support towards the development of the local government area.
