As part of measures to ensure sustainable peace and reduce social tension in the state, the Kano State government has planned to marry off 1,000 widows any time from now.

This was revealed by Malam Aminu Daurawa, commander-general of the state Hisba Board, at the command's office on Sharada Road in Kano metropolis.

He said that the measure is aimed, among others, at making young men become more responsible to themselves and to the society, "and is going to be sustained," he said.

This is coming on the heels of the havoc wrought on the state by the attacks of Boko Haram during which over 200 lives were lost recently.

LEADERSHIP can authoritatively report that the state's authorities, leading members of the ulama and many individuals are already waxing spiritual, engaging in constant prayers as well as applying economic and social measures aimed at tackling the ills that might have brought the prevailing situation in the state.

Many community leaders told LEADERSHIP that they have resolved to do all they could to ensure the return of peace, vowing to exploit the huge advantages inherent in diversity to live in peace with one another.

Yesterday, a special prayer was held at the premises of the Hisbah Commission towards having a lasting peace in the state. Similarly, some groups have resolved to support the state government in the actualisation of the report it received from a consultative forum which made far-reaching recommendations that would eventually stem out security challenges in the state.

For its part, the state government has stepped up efforts to comply with the report of the committee it set up to look into the security challeges and advise the government on the way forward.
