Kano Police Officers Under Probe For Helping Politician To Share Money by DiamondsAreFore(op): 5:46pm On Aug 19, 2025
Police: Officers filmed aiding politician with cash distribution in Kano under probe

The Kano police command says disciplinary measures are being taken against officers caught on video aiding a politician in sharing cash.

A viral video showed a red-capped politician in a flowing robe distributing cash to some youths, while five police officers helped organise them into a queue.

In a statement on Tuesday, Abdullahi Haruna-Kiyawa, the command’s spokesperson, said the incident took place on July 10 at the Coronation Hall of the Kano government house.

The police spokesperson said the incident “had nothing to do” with the rerun and by-elections held in the state on August 16.

Haruna-Kiyawa said the officers, who were deployed to provide security at the ceremony, were seen behaving in an “unprofessional” manner.

“The Kano state police command wishes to address the viral video circulating on social media showing five uniformed police officers assisting a politician in organising members of the public to receive cash,” the statement reads.

“Following a thorough investigation, the command confirms the incident occurred after a ceremony at the Coronation Hall of the Kano State Government House on Thursday, 10 July 2025, and is unrelated to the rerun and by-elections held on 16 August 2025.

“The investigation revealed the officers were deployed for security at the event, during which they were regrettably seen engaging in unprofessional conduct.

“The command assures the public that appropriate disciplinary actions are being taken against the erring officers to maintain the integrity and professionalism of the Nigeria Police Force.

“We remain committed to upholding the highest standards of discipline and ethics while ensuring the trust and confidence of the public.”
