Recall that the Hisbah Board had recently apprehended the eight persons suspected of cross-dressing at a wedding in Kofar Waika, Gwale local government area of the State.

 

Deputy Commander General of the Board, Dr. Mujaheed Aminudeen Abubakar, disclosed this in a statement issued to journalists on Tuesday.

 

The suspects were reportedly arrested based on information provided by concerned citizens who noticed young men dressed in female Fulani attires participating in the wedding festivities.

 

Upon receiving the information, Hisbah operatives promptly arrived at the scene and detained eight young men caught dressed in female attires and dancing in a provocative manner.
