Tuesday, May 19, 2026 - Operatives of the Hisbah Board in Kebbi State have arrested a man allegedly found hiding inside a ‘Ghana-Must-Go’ bag at the residence of a married woman in the Badariya area of Birnin Kebbi.
The arrest was confirmed by the Director of Sharia at the
board, Sirajo Kamba, in a statement issued to the News Agency of Nigeria
on Tuesday.
Kamba said residents alerted Hisbah around 12:15 a.m
on Monday after noticing suspicious movement at the woman’s
residence.
According to him, the community suspected an illicit
relationship and reported the matter to authorities.
He said Hisbah officers were deployed to the scene after
receiving the report, but the woman initially denied that anyone was inside the
house.
Kamba added that the woman later granted access, leading to
a search of the premises where the suspect was discovered concealed inside a
‘Ghana-Must-Go bag.
He said further investigation indicated an alleged romantic
relationship between the man and the married woman.
Both suspects reportedly admitted to the allegation during
interrogation and are expected to be arraigned in court under Islamic law,
according to the board.
The Hisbah official said the case remains under
investigation.
