Sports Betting Banned In Kano

All forms of sports betting has been banned by the Kano State Hisbah Board.

The Deputy Commander-General of the board, Dr Mujaheed Aminuddeen, made this known when he briefed Daily Trust on the Hisbah’s renewed effort to fight immorality.

He told Daily Trust that the Hisbah has re-launched ‘operation flush out immorality’ and its operatives would soon clampdown on individuals and groups bent on violating social order in the state.

He said in its efforts to restore sanity and discipline in the state, the Hisbah would arrest any landlord who rented out an apartment to unknown person(s) in view of the increasing cases of residential houses being used as lodges and motels in the city.

He stated that the board had further issued new rules regarding courtship, as henceforth, no prospective couples would be allowed to sit in tinted vehicles during courtship particularly in the night.

He pointed out that while street begging is prohibited by the law, female beggars who stayed outdoors late into the night would also be arrested.

Dr Mujaheed also announced that the Hisbah is disturbed by the increasing rate of prostitution among young girls and therefore warned that any woman seen in a tricycle after 10pm would also be apprehended.

He warned the public against violating any of the rules, which he said would attract stiff penalty.

He called on parents to be vigilant on their children, especially the females, and stop them from any misconduct capable of breaking any of the rules as stipulated across the state.
