A Nigerian police inspector has been arrested by
the Kano State Islamic Police Corps, Hisbah and
Kano State Road Traffic Authority (KAROTA) for
purchasing beer.

A source told SaharaReporters that the police
officer, popularly known as OC Gulder, is a
Christian who manages the police mess at
Panshekara, Mopol 52 in the Sharada area of the
state.

According to the source, OC Gulder usually goes
to Sabon Gari town to buy beer and other things
to sell at the police mess he manages.

He said the KAROTA had trailed the officer to
the town and arrested him after which they
handed him over to Hisbah for allegedly supplying
1,000 cartons of beer to a beer dealer in the
state.

The source said, "He was not there to supply beer;
he only comes to town to buy and resell. He is a
Christian, he has the liberty to buy and drink
beer. I suspect other officers in the station hate
him because he manages police mess at Mopol 52 in
Sharada area of Kano state.

"He's an inspector for that matter. We call him
OC Gulder. Last Saturday, he came into town
again. We have a state police called KAROTA,
under Gwangwashu, there's another one called
Hisbah, also under the state but the Nigeria Police
Force is superior to them. This officer was coming
with a police vehicle and KAROTA stopped him, he
did not stop because he is an officer.

"Then they followed him and accused him of using
a police vehicle to supply beer, he told them he
was a police officer. These KAROTA officers
arrested the police officer and took him to one
police station along Sabon Gari. They came with 4
hilux buses, armed. Then they went to report to
Hisbah that the officer was bringing beer to Kano,
that they were stopping him and he didn't stop.

"They said he wanted to spoil their religion. Hisbah
then gave the order, and packed over 1,000
cartons of beer bottles from one Obinna's shop in
Sabon Gari. They did this to implicate the police
officer. They said it was the police officer that
brought beer for the young man but he told them
he had only come to purchase beer. But it was
already late, it was around 1am.

"Now, Obinna said when the officer called him, he
told the officer he had closed but the officer
said because of his police work, he would be on
duty and that time was the only time he had to
go to Obinna's shop to make his purchase. Obinna
is from Enugu State.

"The police officer is still locked up in their cell."

hehehe...

come owerri...

see the way those aboki dey live like kings...

drinking beer...

smoking weed, cigarettes and sniffing gum..


and rocking crazy hairstyles...


I am beginning to think the reason for massive emigration of northerners from the north to the south east, west etc...

it cuz they live as they like, they are basically free in our lands than they are in their own...

so long as they don't commit crime or get in heated arguments or altercations with the Indigenes, they can live as long as they want..

Hisbah will soon turn north into north Korea...

Southern state should have their state police, hishbah is state police.

E don be! It's like saying “Yahoo boys arrest EFCC officials”.

Ok... Northern Nigeria leaders and hypocrisy! Tufiakwa! You ban and destroy beer but you are benefitting from its tax - even hailed the Government for alcohol tax increase to boost our income. The question is why not protest? This is totally wrong, highly hypocritical and anti-Islam!...

The Noble Qur'an, in its wisdom, warned against alcohol consumption... It says that alcohol contains some good and some evil, but that the evil is greater than the good (Qur'an 2:219) .. Reason it prohibited it...

According to WHO, Nigeria is rated one of the highest for most death due to alcohol... Admitting that the harm alcohol poses to Nigerians is extremely high... No wonder the Qur'an warned against it...

So I perfectly understand why it's prohibited in the core Northern region.. But my issue is the taxes... The Glorious Qur'an and Sahih Hadiths outright prohibit income taxes. So if income tax is prohibited, why are you benefiting from taxes of Haram products like intoxicants?

The Qur'an clearly warned against benefiting from illegal or Haram businesses... Yet to see these leaders enforce these simple laws.. Destroying alcohol is not enough... Benefiting from taxes of the same products you destroy is wickedness and hypocritical to say the least! 100% anti-Islam, Antichrist, anti-people, unpatriotic and anti-Nigeria..

The Federal Government must do something about this wickedness! So many businesses have suffered because of this! It must stop! Enough is enough!

I don't like Beer, by the way and I am not a Muslim. But the hypocrisy of these wicked elements is baffling..

And people too should respect these laws... Stop selling or consuming alcohol in states where it's banned. Stop breaking the laws of your host... Let's try to respect each other's beliefs and rules.

May God help us all.
