Commissioner for Information and Internal Affairs in the state, Comrade Ibrahim Abdullahi Waiya announced the ban during the quarterly meeting with media executives.

According to a statement signed by Director of Special Duties at the ministry, Sani Abba Yola, the ban “is not to suppress political opposition but rather to safeguard the sanctity of Kano’s cultural and religious values.”

In addition to the ban, the ministry has now made it mandatory for all guests appearing on media platforms to sign an undertaking to abstain from making defamatory, abusive, or culturally offensive remarks.

Media presenters were also warned against asking provocative questions or making gestures that could provoke such statements.
