You don’t have the right to ban celebration of Sallah festivities, Kano State Government replies Commissioner of Police

The Kano State government has stated that the Kano police commissioner lacks the authority to ban the celebration of Sallah festivities in Kano.

In a statement released by Kano State Commissioner of Justice.

The commissioner pointed out that the Commissioner of Police has repeatedly failed to follow the Governor’s lawful directives as the Chief Security Officer, claiming to be acting on higher authority.

He said, “I am compelled to ask the question: who is usurping the authority of the Commander-In-Chief. Because some people are dishing-out directives to security chiefs in the State so much so that the State Police Commissioner without any consultation with the Chief Security Officer of the State or approval from the State Security Council had issued an order banning Eid-el-Kabir festivities in Kano State.

“How can anybody in his right senses ban Sallah festivities in Kano? and when did the State Governor seized to be the Chief Security Officer of the State that he will only see such ban on social media? Who is pushing the State Commissioner of Police to usurp the authority of the Governor?

“It’s important to stress that the Commissioner of Police has been consistent in disobeying the legitimate instructions of the Governor as Chief Security Officer, hiding behind orders from above. I ask gain, what is the offence of Kano people that the Nigeria Police penciled them for destruction?”
