The Kano State Hisbah Board has apprehended 62 individuals accused of engaging in immoral activities after a raid at the Nigerian Institute of Transport Technology (NITT) annex in Dawakin Kudu Local Government Area.

This was confirmed by Deputy Commandant of the Board, Mujahid Aminudeen, in a telephone interview with Daily Trust on Monday.

According to him, the suspects comprised 27 men and 35 women, and they were taken into custody on Sunday during a joint operation carried out in collaboration with operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).

“On Sunday, our personnel, in a joint operation with NDLEA personnel, apprehended 62 persons at a training centre called NITT in Dawakin Kudu following an intelligence report from some good Samaritans,” Mujahid was quoted by Daily Trust.

He continued: “The 62 suspects took advantage of the persistent rain being experienced in the area to enjoy themselves.

“The board will not fold its arms and allow people to continue to violate the Shari’a and therefore call on the public to continue to report those who engage in any act that goes against the Shari’a in the state,” he said.

According to him, the board has also carried out a similar operation at Tamburawa Bridge, where its personnel apprehended some people over similar offences.

The deputy commander said all the suspects would be charged in court as soon as the investigation is concluded.

Two weeks ago, the board also arrested 26 women at a hotel in the Kano metropolis over alleged immoral activities.

The arrest followed complaints from members of the public concerning suspected illegal acts at the location.

Confirming the arrest, the Deputy Commander General of the Kano State Hisbah Board, Dr Mujahid Aminuddeen, told The PUNCH that the operation was carried out with the support of military authorities.

“We want to use this opportunity to appreciate the military authorities and their commanders for the cooperation they gave us to conduct the operation successfully,” he said.

He added that many of the suspects were found drunk during the raid, and several cartons of assorted wine were recovered from the premises.

“We want to seize this opportunity to appeal to members of the public to continue to report to our office for such immoral activities, be it in hotels or residential houses, for prompt action,” he added.

Aminuddeen said the operation would be sustained as part of efforts to rid the state of immoral conduct.

This sounds crazy.

I admit that sex outside marriage is immoral. But, is it by force to be holy? Politicians engage in more immoral acts and have not been arrested. This law or religion seems to be for the poor only.

SE People should get it right and have their own security legally. We have Amotekun in the SE already

I don't have problem with what they do if they only do it to their Muslim counterparts. However, if they extend it to other religions it will be very ridiculous.

A true worshipper is the one that willingly obeys the doctrines. The one forced to follow the doctrines will only use the religion to cause havoc.

That is in Christianity not in other religions. To be they can do whatever they like to their fellow Muslims so far they don't impose it on me or my religion.
In traditional religion, you are free to do it the way that pleases you at the end they will say god will fight for himself but in Islam it's not like that.

In conclusion, freedom of worship is a scam to some people and in some places.
