In all this inhumane and evil acts in Kano state ,Kano state government have not acted swifty by setting up laws, bodies to tackle this cannibalistic ordeal. Are this set of people not an indigenes of Kano state?or Is it because those people are not the relatives of prominent People in Kano state?.
The first policy of a responsible government is to ensure a good humanitarian affairs and see that rights of the common people in a state are well protected to the last .
It matters most that when non indigenes from outside the state had a glimpse of Kano as the home of Slavery and Brutalities.
The government’s quietness to react to this continuous carnage shows that the it far to end. In fact There are much hidden stories which haven’t been exposed in the Media on how evil people molest and maltreat their Fellow people in Kano.
The Government of Kano should as a matter of urgency set up a committee to see ,enact laws and punish gruesomely the devil-may-care people who are hell bent on victimising their Children,Stepsons and Sons in Kano state.
