Saturday, May 24, 2025 - The Kano State Police Command has arrested seven young men and kids for obstructing traffic near the roundabout by the State’s Government House in Kano while attempting to film a video aimed at going viral on social media.
The arrest was confirmed by the Command’s spokesperson, SP
Abdullahi Haruna Kiyawa, in a statement he released on social media, a post on
his Facebook page on Friday night, May 23. According to him, the suspects
intentionally blocked the road at the popular junction, all in a bid to record
a so-called ‘trending video’.
While much detail was not revealed regarding the identities
of the suspects, the development has, however, sparked mixed reactions. While
some netizens applauded the police for taking swift action and maintaining
order, others criticised the move, describing it as a misplacement of
priorities.
