In a swift response, operatives of the Kano State Police Command dispersed a group of youths who attempted to break into Sadaraki Stores on Zoo Road in Kano’s state capital.
The suspects had damaged the building’s windows before the police intervened, preventing further destruction.
Despite the incident, compliance with the protest against hunger in Kano has been low, with many residents staying indoors. Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf had previously warned of potential violence, indicating that some individuals might try to hijack the protest for nefarious purposes.
